Desert Nights, Rising Stars: The ASU Writers Conference

For the past seven years the Desert Nights, Rising Stars Writers Conference has brought writers of all levels together for four exhilarating days in sunny Arizona. Participants get the chance to hone their craft in the classroom and also "rub elbows" with distinguished writers, sharing dialogue during classes, workshops, readings, and other events. By keeping the number of participants small, we are able to offer an experience that is both intimate and affordable, all while maintaining our commitment to be the premier writers conference in the West.
