Introducing Mosaic Lit Summer Program...
This summer we held our first ever Mosaic Lit Summer Program, where we give lessons and guidance on different areas of creative writing. We had participants from all over the world join us this summer. Our interactive classes focused on having our students practice writing on the spot. Thank you to everyone who joined us this year, we hope to see you guys go on to great things!

We wanted to award Honor Students to highlight those who showed up and participated in every lesson, assignment, and showed dedication, and exceptional writing. This was highly selective and was on the basis of which students went above and beyond within the summer program. Every single one of our students was an outstanding writer each with unique talents. We truly enjoyed teaching each and every student.

Hi, I'm Inaya, a fifteen year old living in Pakistan. I love reading, writing, watching movies and listening to music. Current favourite book is either The Bell Jar or AGGGTM, and my favourite artist to listen to is Fleetwood Mac
Session 1 Honor Student
My name is Alexandra, I'm 17 years old and I'm very passionate about writing, but also psychology. I like looking at things from different perspectives and almost always put them on paper because you never know who needs to look from that angle as well. I also enjoy anything related to music as I tried every instrument I could find including my own voice. I'm always up to trying new things in general and having as many experiences as I can:))

Hi, I am Jane, I love art and creating in all different forms and the freedom that comes with being an artist. I like that beautiful inspiration can come from simple things we observe.
Session 2 Honor Student
Hey guys! I’m Raymond — a rising senior in high school from New Jersey — and I was chosen to be one of the Mosaic Lit’s honor students for the 2024 Summer Program. Aside from my writing endeavors and being the editor in chief of my school’s literary magazine, I also harbor a love for language-learning (specifically Italian) and music; whether that be playing my guitar or listening to the newest ‘wave to earth’ song, I am enamored with the world of musical expression! Additionally, I enjoy spending my mornings meditating, stretching, and trying to connect with the present moment as much as possible — we craft our fullest futures from the basis of positive present moments, and I like to express that throughout my writing and actions in my daily life.
"I loved gaining a new perspective to my writing and being able to thrive in an environment with others portraying creative mindsets. "
"It was a truly amazing experience! I felt safe and welcomed since the beginning and could share my ideas without worrying at all that I would be judged. I had wonderful colleagues and organisers from whom I could learn many things. I’m really glad I participated!"
"I really feel like I evolved as a writer and the way I look at other literary works. I’m also more organised in my writing and ideas."
"The feedback from other students with similar intent in mind really helped me observe my own writing from various angles."
"I appreciated how this program allowed me to hear from aspiring writers all around the world! It was interesting to hear about their experiences in their home countries, coupled with their aspirations to hone their craft."
