WFNS is 500 members strong and growing. Our members are at all stages in their writing careers. We are as concerned about the problems of a rural freelancer trying to build a new career as we are for an established novelist searching for a fourth publishing contract. We also exchange newsletters and information with other provincial organizations . WFNS offers workshops for modest fees to members and non-members alike.
Members get a reduced rate.
We represent the interests of writers to a variety of agencies and government departments, and work on behalf of those interests. Our library also features the Playwrights Union of Canada Reading Room and catalogues from many Canadian publishers. Our bimonthly newsletter contains a plethora of information on who's doing what, markets and contests, and current writing events and issues. A team of judges provides written critiques to each entrant. Cash prizes are awarded at an annual gala event.
