Electric Lit has teamed up with the Authors Guild to launch their new Emerging Writer Membership. For the first time, writers who are just starting out in their careers can join the oldest and largest professional writers’ organization in the country. As part of this wonderful new opportunity, we’re answering your questions about the writing industry.
The Authors Guild’s mission is to support working writers and advocate for the rights of writers by supporting free speech, fair contracts, and copyright. Together, Roxana and Mary will answer your questions about the Authors Guild, how to build a writing career, and how to protect your interests as a writer.
In addition to being President of the Authors Guild, Roxana Robinson is the author of nine books: five novels, including Sparta and Cost; three collections of short stories; and the biography Georgia O’Keeffe: A Life.
Mary Rasenberger is the Executive Director of the Authors Guild. Prior to joining the Guild, Mary practiced law for over 25 years, specializing in media and copyright law, and served as senior policy advisor for the U.S. Copyright Office and program manager at the Library of Congress.
