About Us
Juvenile Writers of Kansas City
(JWKC)
welcomes you!

JWKC/MWCAG is composed of experienced and aspiring writers who share a deep commitment to creating the highest-quality children's literature. The not-for-profit organization first formed more than 35 years ago. Members meet regularly to critique each others' work and discuss publishing and marketing issues relevant to children's literature. JWKC is a chapter of the Missouri Writer's Guild.

We invite both published and unpublished authors who share our commitment to join us. Annual dues are $25. See "Join JWKC" for an application and guidelines. Check out our calendar of events for information on our chapter events, many of which are open to nonmembers.

JWKC is changing!

JWKC has gained a national reputation for its member's ability to produce high quality literature for children. But as with all things, we've outgrown our name.

During the summer of 2009, JWKC will officially do business as: Midwest Children's Authors Guild (MWCAG) to better reflect what we do. Until the transition is complete, all correspondance and dues should be addressed to Juvenile Writers of Kansas City (or JWKC for short!)  Welcome to our journey! Come celebrate with us!

Keep your eye out for our summer "unveiling!"
