Kansas Authors Club
The Kansas Authors Club welcomes creative, technical, academic and journalistic writers. Since 1904, the club has offered
the opportunity to writers to share experiences and problems unique to their profession, not only to novices but also to authors of national reputation. While magazines and books may be helpful in improving one's writing skills, there is no substitute for the
camaraderie enjoyed or the expertise developed when poets, playwrights and prose writers meet to listen, discuss and analyze their craft in an atmosphere of mutual support.
