About us

There are three kinds of freelance writers:

• Newbies breaking into the writing field or searching for moonlighting money.
• Out-of-work writers killing time until they find a real job.
• Writers who freelance by choice, and have the talent to attract clients.

You'll find only the third choice here at Working Writers of Wisconsin. Most of us have blue-chip backgrounds as senior writers for major corporations, publishers and ad agencies. We've learned that a truly good writer can work very profitably as an independent. We have found our greener pastures, and plan to stay for the duration.

That's important if you're looking for a seasoned writer who can be trusted as a vital member of your team. Until now, finding us meant knowing somebody who knows somebody. Now, all you need is our directory. Click on the List link above to choose a writer. You'll find an incredible amount of talent is only a mouse click away.

Meetings and events

Working Writers of Wisconsin tries to get together as a group on a regular basis. About half of our meetings are social in nature, with no particular agenda but perhaps with a shared adventure. The other half of our meetings are informative... a presentation on a topic of interest.
