Wordsmiths Magazine is a community of writers who love to put pen to paper. This is what we want to promote and nuture here, a community where writers are encouraged and supported in their efforts to write well and tell their stories.
Sometimes it’s hard to know how to help our kids grow in their hobbies, and that’s where Wordsmiths comes in.
This space is a place of inspiration and encouragement, as well as where writers can gain valuable experience in editing and refining their work to become the best that they can be.
As a father myself, I positive communities for my children. My hope is that Wordsmiths plays a positive role in developing creativity, thinking and confidence, not just in literacy skills, but also into every aspect of the writer’s life.
