Saddleback's Creative Writing Program offers students the opportunity to learn about the crafts of poetry, short stories, creative nonfiction, playwriting, memoir, and novels. In addition to studying the techniques of established writers in these genres, students explore their expressive powers while developing their own works. Students can earn an A.A. degree in Creative Writing in both in-person and online courses. Consult the catalog for further information.
