The following are organisations or companies that are leading the field in creative support for writers. As far as resources for authors go, the list below are highly recommended and we encourage you to review them all and become mebers of the ones that would best suit your needs. For example; if you are an author in the Gold Coast looking for resources to assist you then the Queensland Writers’ Centre would be the logical place to start.
Examining the correct connections and resources for you as an author is critically important. The reason being is that once published, you as an author need to market your book. This process begins with connections, engagement and building a fan base or following. There is no better place to start as an author than to tap into the resources and information centres offering support in your niche. Furthermore, it is logical to connect with other writers and share expernces, tools, strategies and resources to further grow your skills.
