Writers SIG


Welcome Statement

The Writers Special Interest Group, or Writers SIG, is open to any current APG member.  Writing experience is not necessary to join.  The SIG is open to all beginners, intermediate, advanced, professionals, and those who don’t like writing.  We welcome anyone who enjoys learning.


Meetings

The Writers SIG meets on the third Wednesday of every month, at 8 PM EST, unless previously announced.  The SIG does not meet in December. 


Membership

APG membership is a prerequisite for joining the Writers SIG.  SIG dues are $20 and run annually, renewals will sync with your APG national dues. 

 

Educational and Networking Membership Benefits

Recorded Presentations
