UCLA Writing Project Summer Camp

Instructors:
Raquela Bases
Nicole Barraza

Let your imagination lead the way this summer as you write fiction, fantasy, and personal narratives. Construct new worlds and get into the heads of characters of your own invention.

In our workshop, you will write short stories, record memories, and practice inserting dialogue into your text. You will share your work with your peers, and at the end of our course, you will select a few pieces to publish in our class anthology.

Join this workshop to develop your writing craft and collaborate with other creative writers.

This summer we’re excited to offer an in-person workshop on the UCLA campus that begins June 20 as well as a virtual class that begins July 8.
