The New Zealand Author

Our quality quarterly magazine carries amongst other things, governance matters, updates from National Office, local and international issues that impact on writing and getting published. It carries articles from industry professionals and writers, and first-person essays that inspire, inform and motivate, including the series Writers on Writers.

Fortnightly Literary Bulletin

Our popular enews keeps members up to date with news about writers, writing and publishing. We also notify members about competitions, fellowships, awards and events and freedom of expression issues both locally and overseas. Our Death by deadline calendar compiles all the opportunities in date order. The enews informs members about the Neilson Bestsellers book list and writers and book readings on radio and TV. Members can use the enews to celebrate successes, promote book launches, events and opportunities.

New Books Bulletin

Members can have their new books listed in our monthly New Books Bulletin that goes out to all members and stakeholders and all booksellers and library suppliers.

A range of professional development leaflets cover several aspects of writing from finding a publisher to copyright protection. These nine leaflets are available to download in pdf format free in the members-only area of the website.
