Behsam International Creative Writing Academy is a storytelling and creative writing academy founded by Aty S. Behsam and Maedeh B. Saaina. Since its establishment, we have provided creative writing education, mentorship, workshops, and story coaching for writers and artists from diverse backgrounds and experience levels.

Supported by a hardworking and creative team, we are dedicated to helping storytellers working in novels, comics and manga, animation, film, and games. We help writers develop their craft, strengthen their storytelling skills, and navigate the international publishing world. Our programs cover fiction writing, story development, worldbuilding, character creation, editing, and publishing guidance, with a particular focus on supporting emerging voices and fostering an inclusive international writing community.
