Society of Midland Authors Starter Pack
Members of the Society of Midland Authors (midlandauthors.org). Fifty writers formed The Society of Midland Authors in 1915 to promote “a closer association among the writers of the Middle West” and “the stimulation of creative literary effort.” We're still here over 100 years later.
