Why Join the Writers' Union of Canada (TWUC)?

The many answers to the above question have been tweeted @twuc and can also be found on Facebook at TWUC #WhyIJoin. Here's my contribution to TWUC's #WhyIJoin initiative...

From the first article I ever published, to later books, I always wanted as much professional information about writing and publishing as I could get. In the early days of my career, this was a challenge. But now, TWUC keeps me informed on the latest issues and trends that are crucial to professional book authors. So here, in a word--and a video--is #WhyIJoin: PROFESSIONALISM

Subject to a peer review of the commercial viability of their books, self-published authors can now join TWUC.
