About Us

Our membership covers a wide range of writers, illustrators and industry professionals at every stage of their careers. From journalists to comic artists, scriptwriters to bloggers, novelists to narrative designers and translators to poets, our members cross many disciplines.

If you are a published author of one book or many, we would warmly welcome you as a Full Member of the ASA.

If you are serious about writing, but just starting out and would like to benefit from our advice, training and resources, or if you are interested in industry issues and keen to support the peak body for authors and illustrators, then we would welcome you as an Associate Member.

If you have any queries about membership or the ASA, feel free to email us at membership@asauthors.org.

The ASA acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora nation, the Traditional Owners of the land on which we meet and work, and all Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia. We recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' continuing connection to land, place, waters and community. We pay our respects to their cultures, country and elders past present and emerging.


The ASA respects Australia's first storytellers.
