SCHOLARSHIP STORIES

MCWC SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS IN THEIR OWN WORDS

The Mendocino Coast Writers’ Conference is proud to debut a series of short films about seven writers who won scholarships to our conference. Please enjoy these inspiring stories about seven very different people and their unique experiences of the Mendocino Coast Writers’ Conference.

Special thanks to all who participated in the production of these videos, especially our wonderful scholarship recipients, who volunteered their time and energy to provide this footage of their lives.

Please consider donating to the Mendocino Coast Writers’ Conference today. Every dollar counts because every donation will change a writer’s life.

For those interested in applying for a scholarship to the next MCWC conference, scholarship applications will open in January.
