Dead Writers Society

Dead Writers Society is a creative writing workshop club at UCLA founded in January 2024 by four friends who met in other campus writing groups; the name nods to the film "Dead Poets Society." At meetings in Rolfe Hall, members read three or four submitted pieces in advance, chosen first come, first served, and each author says what kind of feedback they want before the group critiques it. Most work is fiction, poetry or screenplays, and the club also plans outings to book festivals and poetry readings.
