For writers
|
In 2015/16 Jan Mitchell was Acting President of the Lake Macquarie Branch of the Fellowship of Australian Writers NSW. She is still an active member of this group.
Lake Mac FAW is highly supportive of new writers as well as those who are more established. Current members are writers of poetry, short stories, novels, magazine articles, memoir and biography. The branch runs monthly critique groups, where individual work is gone over in detail around the table. This provides an excellent first round of editing for those wishing to publish. Members have a wide range of skills for helping other writers During 2011, six members of LMFAW published their works using the printing arm of Amazon Books - Create Space (www.createspace.com). Create Space provides a choice of templates for book format and cover design, checking that material fits within the template, proof-reading and editing and other essential services, including printing. You pay according to the services used. |
