Events
The UCLA Extension Writers’ Program hosts a free Publication Party each June.
In addition, we frequently participate in free community events hosted by other writing-related organizations. The Writers’ Program participates in events such as LitCrawl, Comic Con, and AWP, to name a few.
For more information about the Writers’ Program’s participation at any of these events, please call (310) 825-9415.
“The courses offered through the Writers’ Program were essential to my success as a writer for children. Each class was filled with remarkably talented (pre-published) writers whose insights and notes helped make my books focused, polished and full of humor. What was most important for me was that each week I had to complete a chapter and read it aloud. No procrastination and no excuses, just writing and ideas and more writing. Best of all I now call my classmates friends.”
