>National Writer's Union says
Andrew has hit on something that I've wondered about for a while now. I'm trying to branch out into other areas of writing, so I'm trying to join groups that will help me network.
But every time I consider the National Writer's Union, their us-against-them-at-Defcon-5 attitude puts me off every time.
Is anyone here a member of the NWU? Do you feel it is a worthwhile group for a mainly technical, occasionally freelance writer?
