Hi Andy,
A couple of things. The Professional Writers Association of Canada is no longer as of April 1. It now called the Canadian Freelance Guild. The link you have takes you to the Canadian Freelance Guild site, so I think that’s okay. It’s just the name you need to change.
Under member websites, my site isn’t listed. I think it was before, but I don’t see it now. Can you please add it. http://www.janiceleuschen.com
Thanks
Also, what is the field below this box for?
Thanks Janice. Will Update.
Love the website. Congrats on Painted voices. Guilt has overcome me on this sunny day and I would like to pay my dues. HOW?
David I will email you about membership fees. Thanks for the kind words on the Painted Voices launch.
I am looking for a writer who can write comedy base on my stories. I want to do stand up.
