Reminder: Magazines Canada Members Can Sign Up for Writers.ca for Free!

May 1, 2013

The Professional Writers Association of Canada recently launched a new site called writers.ca that connects professional writers to Canada's magazine media, and for a limited time Magazines Canada members can sign up for the service for free.

The Writers.ca portal contains profiles for over 700 professional writers with expertise and experience across a spectrum of subject matter, from technology to health, food to fashion. Magazine professionals can use the site to search for writers by name, location, subject or expertise for their next writing assignment. Magazines and publishers can also post jobs for specific positions or projects, develop and deliver assignments, negotiate and store contracts, store and tag projects and handle contributor accounts, all within the portal.

"PWAC's Writers.ca is an important business initiative. Connecting Canadian content creators with the media dedicated to publishing Canadian content is a positive approach and good common sense," said Mark Jamison, Magazines Canada CEO.

The service is free to try from now until Labour Day. Following that date, Magazines Canada members can continue to use Writers.ca at a reduced cost.

Visit writers.ca to learn more, or talk with the Writers.ca team in person at the 2013 MagNet Marketplace from June 5 to 7.

To sign up for your free trial, please contact Sandy Crawley, PWAC Executive Director at scrawley@pwac.ca.
