Member Review
I belong to the Writers Union of Canada because I believe that serious writing is serious work. It is real labour in the real world and, like all other jobs, if it is to be done well, it requires good working conditions and fair trade practices. TWUC fights to improve the working lives of writers and it needs our support.
