The Inlandia Institute offers creative writing workshops for children, teens and adults in various locations throughout the Inland Empire. Information for the upcoming Winter session will be available in January. Workshops require a $25 registration/materials fee, which entitles you to a free copy of that year’s Writing from Inlandia anthology, although fee waivers are available on an as-needed basis. Registration is required. Email cati.porter@inlandiainstitute.org for further information.
For a general overview of what these workshops are like click here.
If you are a registered member of the one of the four workshops and would like to submit work for consideration for the annual Writing from Inlandia anthology click here.
There are currently four workshop locations serving the Inland Empire:

I am interested in more information about the Palm Springs workshops. When are they offered. How do you register? I am a published fiction writer. My main genre is the short story.
Thank you
Hi! My name is Brenda Dunkelman. I have participated in the library group meeting in the past and found it very informative as to what others were writing. There were very interesting pieces from all who attended over the weeks I attended. I want to attend again so send me more info please! I am now living in Chino, so Riverside is not too far. Thank you Ruth Nolan for allowing me into the mix the last time and I look forward to joining the group again!

Hi Brenda,
So glad you enjoyed the workshop! The official Inlandia workshops are currently on hiatus for the summer, but if you are interested I believe Ruth is running a separate, independent workshop beginning soon and running through August. I will forward your contact info to her so she can let you know the particulars, and thanks for your interest!

I’m interested in joining either the Idyllwild or the Palm Springs workshops. How do I go about doing tso? I have an MFA in fiction and have published short stories in national magazines.
Thanks,

I would love to find out more about attending the Palm Springs workshops, too! Thanks very much. Riba.
Hi Riba,
We will be starting up again mid-January. I’ll be posting the updated info as soon as I have it and will forward your info to Maureen, the workshop leader for that area. Thanks!
Oh, great! I’ll look forward to hearing. My email, if that helps: riba11@earthlink.net.
Thanks very much!
I’m a case manager currently looking for a creative writing class for one of my clients. I’m located in the rancho cucamonga/ Ontario area… Is there anyway you can forward me the contact information?
Hi Holly,
Thanks for getting in touch. I have just forwarded to you the information about the upcoming workshops, via email.
Best,

Hi,
my name is Gertraud. I have moved from Austria to California to live here with my husband. We are both published writers and would love to take part in a writer’s workshop in Riverside. There is always something to learn from others in the same field, and it would be great to be able to exchange thoughts.
Please let me know if there is another course in Riverside. I am very sorry that I missed the workshop with Ruth Nolan, I discovered it only when it was too late.
Gertraud
Hi Gertraud,

I would love to participate in something like this. I’ve always wanted people like me who love to write and enjoy reading the work of others in the same space. I live in upland ca. I hope there will be workshops near me.
Hi Lauryn,
Our Ontario workshop is actually not too far from you – it is held at 119 W. Transit St., right off of Euclid Avenue. If you’re interested I can send you more information, and thank you for contacting us!
