But there is a catch. There is always a catch, right?

The catch is we need reviewers.

The Houston Writers Guild would like to put together an independent review board made up of teachers and librarians who are not writers but who love to read. Our reviewers would receive a free book of their chosen genre in either an ebook or actual book along with a check sheet with space to comment. We need reviewers to review books written by our members. Each book will either be approved or disapproved by three individual reviewers who normally read that genre. These approved books would then be highlighted on the Houston Writer’s Guild website.

This is a good opportunity for librarians and teachers to acquire some free books. I can say that a lot of the books available are really good, but I’m not that unbiased. Although I am a highly critical reader.

If you are an interested librarian or teacher, or know someone who is, please use the “contact me” page to let me know.

The other thing I want to mention is the HWG state of the guild address, which will take place Tuesday evening January 13 at the Westchase Marriot at 2900 Briarpark Drive from 6-8. Come have happy hour with us and find out what inspirational and amazing things will be happening with HWG.
