The Guild was founded to promote, support, and encourage the writing art for adults and youth. The anthology is a fund-raising project with all proceeds helping the Guild continue in that effort. We have been a collaborative partner in the larger San Diego writing community since 1979.
Our outreach projects include:
* Manuscript Critique – members may submit up to 30 pages of a novel, nonfiction or memoir for evaluation/critique by the Guild's Manuscript Critique Committee. An SDWEG rating is assigned which can be used when contacting agents, editors, and publishers.
* Marketing Support Group – members are invited to attend a monthly meeting devoted to writers who have recently published or are soon to be published in order to join the discussion on marketing tips that work, don't work, or to get advice from other writers.
* Online references and resources for writers on our website.
* Monthly meetings with guest speakers addressing timely topics on writing/publishing.
* Members Only Discussion Board.
* Monthly newsletter, The Guilded Newsletter.
