There are two ways to join FAW NSW you can contact a regional group or you can become an isolated writer.
Annual subscriptions are due on 1 January each year and are paid to the Regional Treasurer where the member attends meetings. Each Regional sets its own annual fee. The major part of this amount goes to the FAW State Council as an affiliation fee to cover administration costs and the bi-monthly bulletin "Writers Voice".
Isolated writers fees are paid directly to the central administration.
FAW NSW has over thirty regional groups throughout the state. Each group is autonomous but enjoys the advantages of being part of the umbrella organisation of the FAW NSW. Contact one near you to find out more details or contact the Membership Secretary. See more
For writers unable to attend meetings because of distance or disability, there is the Isolated Writers’ Regional (conducted by correspondence), which provides support, advice, assistance and a chance to contact and commune with fellow writers. See more
The FAW is pleased to confer on members the designation of Writing Fellow. This recognises a level of excellence in writing that has been maintained over an extended period of years.
Application criteria and details on how to apply for the status of Writing Fellow are published in Writers Voice.
