The Gold Rush Writers Conference is an intimate weekend in Mokelumne Hill led by professionals who guide you through a series of panels, specialty talks, workshops and celebrated author lectures. Go one-on-one with successful poets, novelists, biographers, memoirists, screenwriters, playwrights and short story writers. The conference also includes a picnic supper in a Victorian garden Friday evening followed by an open-mic reading, Saturday dinner and Sunday lunch at the historic Hotel Leger.
