The Christian Writers Guild has been training people to write since 1964. You are matched with a hand-picked mentor — an experienced writer and editor — who offers practical advice and coaching in response to the assignments you complete for each lesson.

Christian Writers Guild is a top-notch organization with one purpose in mind:
