This year's annual NASW membership meeting will be held virtually on Nov. 9, 2022. Open to all current NASW members.
For our 2022 annual meeting, we are excited to offer attendees the best of each medium, in-person or virtual. Join us for ScienceWriters2022 online and onsite Oct. 12-25 in collaboration with our local host, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
As science writers, we’re often pressed for time. So we reach out to the sources who seem to be easiest to find. But when we exclude the voices of people who are underrepresented in science, we overlook important viewpoints that make our stories richer, more complex, and ultimately more accurate. In this two-part workshop, we’ll address why source diversity matters, what metrics to track, how to capture the data, who should capture the data, and how tracking can be used to improve our work.
Most books in today’s publishing markets are sold by literary agents. Yet, finding one to represent a first-time author can be difficult, stressful and disheartening. In this panel, several NASW authors will talk about how they found their agents (or not), and how they got their books out into the world.
