Writer’s Symposium by the Sea aims to inspire students and the community on the craft of writing
Twenty-eight years ago, Dean Nelson had an idea. He wanted to bring the best and brightest literary minds to the seaside campus of Point Loma Nazarene University to talk about their lives and, within the process, hopefully inspire local audiences to do the same.
“It’s been a big evolution, but I still adhere to the original roots of what we wanted to do,” said Nelson, a journalist and founder of PLNU’s journalism program. “We want to bring in people who have a body of work, not just someone who did a one-off or a celebrity who had someone ghost write their memoir. Those are valuable, but what we’re trying to say to the audience and to our students is ‘aspire to this.’ We want it to be elevating and inspiring.
Nelson points to this year’s writer’s symposium theme as not only a prompt for this year’s lineup, but as a central tenet of the event itself.
