About the Central Coast Writers Conference

The 34th annual Cuesta College Central Coast Writers Conference is an essential destination for writers, teachers, students, editors, and publishers. Each year, writers join our community for three days of insightful dialogue, networking, and unrivaled access to our staff.

The 2018 conference features over 45 presenters offering screenwriting, workshops, panels, critiques, keynotes, and craft lectures. Along with new writers, we host established authors, journalists, and literary organizations from around the state.

Join us September 27-29, 2018, as we expand to include a keynote featuring Woman’s Voices in our Wine, Women, Wisdom and Words event.  We also will be offering Master Classes ushering students into a mentor situation to complete a writing project. CCWC is a unique conference with its intimate settings, supportive teachers, and a wide range of topics covered to make it the elite of writing conferences in San Luis Obispo, CA.

Scholarships are available for teachers, teens, and underserved populations.
