Is there a children's writing organization an unpublished writer can join?

It is possible to join The Society of Children's Writers and Illustrators. The Society of Children's Writers and Illustrators is commonly called SCBWI. Check out their website at www.scbwi.org. SCBWI is great because a writer doesn't need to be published in order to join. This is in contrast to the Writer's Guild where one must be published to be eligible to join. The SCBWI helps promote children's writers and illustrators as much as possible. By joining this organization, writers come in contact with other aspiring children's authors and illustrators as well as those authors and artists that are published. It is a very supportive organization. SCBWI has regional chapters that usually have a few children's writers and illustrators conferences throughout the year. The conferences are located locally. In addition, the national office of SCBWI holds two BIG national conferences each year. The first conference is in February in New York City. The second conference is in Los Angeles in August.

As well, sometimes authors are paid a royalty on each book sold.Other writers, such as journalists, technical writers, ghost writers, and so forth may be able to work out other compensation schemes.
