From the earliest of times, God has called upon his people to write down a
    message for the benefit of future generations.  Some brought words of
    warning or rebuke, while others conveyed encouragement or comfort.  In
    every age and nation, including our own, faithful believers have come forward
to answer that call.  Is this you?

The Antelope Valley Christian Writers’ Conference, the only annual event of its kind in Los Angeles County, is now in
its sixth year.  Our faculty are among the finest and most experienced in the business.  Clearly the Lord has blessed
our efforts, and we feel confident that he will continue to do so in the future.

Whether you’re an absolute beginner – a seasoned professional – or somewhere
in-between, this may be for you.  If  you enjoy writing, and you’d like to learn
how the publishing business works, you are welcome to attend.

As we know, God gives different gifts to different people.  For some, they feel
called to preach.  For others, they travel far and wide as missionaries.  Some serve God with music, others with gifts
of bookkeeping or teaching or administration.  We may have different roles, but we all share the same mission to
serve
God and his people.

What’s Your  Story?  

What is it that inspires you to write?  Is it history, or romance, or theology, or mystery?  Do you enjoy writing sci-fi, or
fantasy?  Or perhaps you feel moved to write the proverbial Great American Novel.  So please don’t be misled by the
name of our conference: We are Christians who write, but most of us don’t write about religious themes.






Clearly, writers are a unique breed.  We have a passion to take a simple story and build it into a finished product that
will inspire others.  For some it may be a lucrative full-time career. For others, it's a rewarding pastime.  But wherever
you come from - and wherever you want to go - we are all motivated by the simple joy of telling a story.

We can help you get there.  You can:

  • Receive a personalized, professional critique of your latest writing project.

  • Fellowship with other writers who share your struggles, passion, and ambitions.

  • Pitch your ideas directly to our agents and editors.

  • Attend workshops in a wide array of creative categories.  

Together, we can help you take your  writing to the next level, the best it can be.

Complimentary refreshments, a continental breakfast, and a buffet lunch will be provided.  Several budget-priced
hotels are in the local area for your convenience.    

We hope you'll join us for a time of refreshing in the desert.
