There is a new group out there, in case you didn’t know.
A group aiming to change the way RWA deals (or rather doesn’t deal) with electronically published authors.
It’s a Yahoo group, called RWAChange. Here is the link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RWAchange/
I am for change. I’m sure there are a great many things RWA is good for, but unfortunately if you’re not in the US, don’t belong to a chapter, or – gasp-wheeze-cough – are electronically published… then there isn’t a heck of a lot for you there.
My feeling about RWA?
John Steinbeck said it best:
“A dying people tolerates the present, rejects the future, and finds its satisfactions in past greatness and half remembered glory”
I feel RWA is ignoring potential and is rejecting change. A change that has been asked for for the past 10 years. I left because of the issues affecting electronic authors (and publishers), but now they are addressed once more.
Maybe this time there are some open minded people who will listen.
If you want to be a part of it, join the group, see what it’s about.
