dues for current and new members effective immediately and on through 2012 dues will be re instated on january 1 2013 that doesn t mean we ll be shutting down and riding out the economic storm quite the opposite we ll continue to introduce our members to tie in editors and licensing execs with our quarterly mailing of member credits and contact info we ll continue to put out tied in our newsletter about tie in writing we ll continue to give out the scribe awards for excellence in media tie in writing and we ll continue to moderate our highly popular private discussion board for media
