Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer’s Masterclass

We’re thrilled to offer FREE registered admission for the Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer’s Masterclass at UC San Diego — an immersive, day-long experience exploring the craft and power of speculative fiction.

In the Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer’s Masterclass events, attendees will have a chance to learn the fundamentals of speculative fiction from faculty and recent alumni of the selective Clarion Writers’ Workshop.
