WITI WINS Writer's Club will meet once a month where we will sharpen our writing projects. Each month we will bring our current projects - film, fiction, non-fiction - and we will workshop them together, masterminding our collective genius so we all rise together, both in our craft/artistry and in our professional advancement.
Author your own professional wildlife themed book and become a published author. Enhance how society perceives you. We have fun and get things done! Learn the detailed elements of authorship. You will be guided step-by-step to author your own professional book. Your authored book is editorially reviewed, assembled, and published to Amazon, literacy groups, reading clubs, and more. Your instructor Howard Minsky is a published author of more than four hundred wildlife books. Prior to Author League, Howard was co-founder and president of SKM Media Group, a financial services marketing and data company ranked by INC magazine as a Top 100 fastest growing private company in America.
