We need your help to publicize the conference. Word of mouth is the most effective promotion. Please tell your friends, colleagues, co-workers, fellow church members and others who are interested in writing.
1. Send people to the televised PSA (public service announcement) produced by Crossroads Communications that is being aired on CTS. Link to it on the home page of the Write! Canada Web site. Simply click on the "Share/Save" icon under the video on the home page, and easily post it or email it. Add the PSA itself to your Web site or blog.
2. Post or distribute copies of the Write! Canada poster at your church, library, school, bookstore, etc.
Please help us get the word out to people in your church or community by downloading our 8.5" x 11" poster as a PDF, printing some copies, and posting or distributing them. While it is in colour, you can print it in black and white.
