Every writer, be they beginner or veteran, needs a close circle of fellow writers to act as sounding boards, mentors, beta-readers and emotional support. And it’s even better to have a direct line to an experienced editor to answer their questions and give feedback on their works-in-progress. But not every writer has the means to connect with other writers or hire an editor.
The biggest benefit you get from membership is a chance to attend a monthly online writing group, facilitated by CL‘s editor Nancy Kay Clark.
For a small annual contribution to CL‘s Contributors Fund (with which we hope to gather a sustainable pot of money to pay our writers), you can get that type of support from CL editor Nancy Kay Clark and fellow community members on an ongoing basis by joining our Writing Circle.
None of the fees collected will go towards paying for the editor’s time, until there is a sustainable ongoing fund to pay writers.
There are two membership subscription levels
Silver – CA$75 per year
1. Members receive two free editorial critiques (4,000 words max.) per year (the regular fee for one critique is CA$60; so you’re saving money);
2. 10% discount on critiques over 4,000 words;
3. The opportunity to join monthly small-group writing workshops on Zoom led by me — to read and discuss each other’s work. I’ll keep the participant numbers per session low, so we can devote enough time to everyone’s work.
Gold – CA$95 per year
1. Members receive three free editorial critiques (4,000 words max.) per year (which would normally cost you $180);
2. 15% discount on critiques over 4,000 words;
3. The opportunity to join small-group writing workshops on Zoom led by me — to read and discuss each other’s work.
Please note membership benefits are not transferable from year to year. You must make use of them within 12 months of signing up. Membership renewals will be on an annual basis.
