Our quarterly magazine serves the interests of
all our members, who vary from successful authors to virtual novices. It
includes details of our meetings, poetry, competitions, letters, marketing
information, advice and the work of members. This includes winning competition
entries and articles, short stories and poems that have not been submitted for
competition, or had failed to win. Thus all members are given the chance to see
their work published, as we wish to encourage all of our members, not just those
who have already succeeded. To some extent we are a club of kindred spirits.
Many attend meetings, others depend upon Author as the means by which they
communicate, everyone shares a love of writing.
The editor accepts work in any form, but it
makes his task easier and improves the prospect of being published in Author, if
it is submitted in the following form.
