The Word Guild

If you’re trying to decide whether to join The Word Guild, take a look at the Testimonials section. It contains stories from current members describing how membership in TWG has impacted their lives.

If you’re trying to decide whether you can afford membership in The Word Guild, consider this. An associate membership is $59, which qualifies you for member discounts on conferences, contest entries, etc. If you come to the Write! Canada conference, the $20 you’ll save on your conference registration effectively means one year of membership will cost you $39. That’s only 75 cents a week! That’s cheaper than a cup of coffee, a package of gum or a newspaper.

You’ll immediately become part of a nationwide community of writers and editors who are Christian. You’ll be linked into a caring and encouraging group who will offer you advice and encouragement. You can join our Internet discussion group to ask questions and talk about writing issues. You’ll receive a biweekly newsletter Write! On that informs you about industry news, job openings, writing markets, contests, book launches and upcoming seminars. You can ask for prayer support from our Prayer Team about your writing career. You’ll start to get to know many of the people involved in the Canadian Christian writing, editing, speaking and publishing industry. If one of these contacts leads to you getting a publishing credit, finding some work or winning a contest, the membership fee will pay for itself many times over. For those earning any income from their writing, the membership fee is deductible as a business expense. Find out more about the benefits of membership in The Word Guild here.
