Central Coast Writers Conference Headed Online Because Of Coronavirus Crisis

An annual conference for writers on the Central Coast is the latest event on the region to change format, and go completely online as a result of the coronavirus crisis.

The Central Coast Writers Conference will take place online in September. 

The conference is normally held at Cuesta College.  It’s now in its 36th year.

The three-day event will feature three keynote speakers, and events focused on various areas like writing poetry, screenwriting, and novel writing.   

Participants will be able to submit the works for an annual book published in connection with the conference.
