– The 31st annual Central Coast Writer’s Conference, presented by Cuesta College Community Programs, is set to take place September 18-20 on the college’s San Luis Obispo campus. The conference aims to offer affordable interactive workshops that teach skill development in a variety of writing genres to both aspiring and established writers.
“This conference has something for every writer, no matter their level of expertise,” said Central Coast Writer’s Conference Director Teri Bayus. “It includes 50 different workshops on screenwriting, comedy, poetry and many more writing styles, a writer’s boot camp, panel discussions, a literary dinner, and a keynote speaker who will discuss the methods of crafting a masterpiece.”
Additionally, a free Book & Author Fair will be held on September 20 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. at the Sea Crest Resort in Pismo Beach. The fair will offer participants a chance to meet more than 60 authors and literary professionals.
“The public can meet and chat with both well-known and undiscovered authors,” said Bayus. “The fair will be a celebration rejoicing in the written word, the people who write those words, and the artists and illustrators who help to bring them to life.”
