Since we started campaigning a few weeks ago, more than 100 new members have signed on. Thank you for your support! Now that it's clear we're losing substantial funding from the Provincial government, contributions from our audiences are increasingly important. If you haven't already become a member we urge you to join us and show your support for great literary programming and our Spreading the Word education program for BC schools. And the benefits of membership are great...discounts, earlybird tickets, we could go on... Click for more information, http://www.writersfest.bc.ca/supportus/joinus.

Every two weeks we will draw the name of a new member to win an exciting prize. The prize for April 1: two tickets to see Peter Carey in conversation with Hal Wake on May 7.
