Saskatoon Freelancers’ Roundtable Group
Pictured in this photo are the five most active members of Saskatoon Freelancers’ Roundtable Group, a vibrant writers’ group which has met monthly since 2013. (We’re now celebrating our 11th year and meet monthly at Saskatoon’s HomeQuarter Coffeehouse & Bakery!)

Our group shares business insights, writing tips, resources and much more, over a latte or cappuccino, every month. We’re a collegial and congenial group! Since last fall (2023) and continuing until this summer (2024), we have applied our 50+ years of collective experience to respond to “Ask a Freelancer,” a series in the quarterly magazine of the Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild (SWG) .
Last fall, we responded to the questions of “How do I find freelance writing clients?” and “How do I best pitch my stories?” Currently, we’re compiling our responses to address March’s topic: “What resources should freelance writers use?”
If you’re a new or aspiring freelancer in the business writing world, why not subscribe to the Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild magazine, and read our contributions? Or you can drop me a line to join our next meeting!
