Amazon ger stipendier för ett sommarläger där ungdomar kan skriva i "shared 
worlds":

"Shared Worlds is an interdisciplinary program that encourages students to 
solve problems, to assimilate large quantities of information, to work in 
groups, and to express themselves creatively. Students will meet and 
collaborate with professors and peers who share their interest in today's 
hottest literature genres.
Shared Worlds is a two-week residential camp based on a "shared world" theme. A 
shared world is a growing trend in fiction that centers around a complete, 
fictional world designed by a group. During Wofford's Shared World program, 
students will design fantasy worlds with other young, creative writers and 
share those worlds through fiction, art, and game design.
...
This program takes a multi-disciplinary approach to learning. Students will be 
exposed to as many disciplines as they may possibly need, and be given the 
skills to explore and research other disciplines.
Furthermore, Shared Worlds encourages individual creativity as well as 
collaboration. Individuals contribute to the group while learning to function 
within it.. That is, being a good citizen means doing your part and keeping in 
mind the needs of the whole group. There is a distinct emphasis on 
problem-solving and communication skills.
The culminating event of the camp is an exhibition day, during which each group 
presents their fiction and other elements of their world, which might include 
games, maps, artwork, and music. "
