• promotion of your work on our website
• support and feedback on your work at our Writers’ Lounges and workshops
• opportunities to publish your work in The Australian Writer

A Member is a published writer of at least one book (any communication medium) or an editor whose work constitutes a reputable contribution to letters.
Members have the right to vote at the Fellowships’s Annual General Meeting and other times of election. If you are applying to be recognised as a Member, please mail or email us a brief list of writing credits with this application.

An Associate Member is any other person, not necessarily a published writer, who is interested in writing. Associate Members are not eligible to vote on motions at Annual General Meetings, but in every other way receive the same rights and benefits as Members.
