Membership
Author! Author! was founded in 2003 to foster the
development, promotion, distribution and marketing of local
authors' work; to provide encouragement and inspiration to
those authors as they write and submit their work for
publication; and to provide a support network for those
authors. Author! Author! is independent of any other
local writers' group. (For more information about our
activities, click here.)
