Whether you write for newspapers, magazines, newsletters, trade journals or other periodicals or for radio or TV or create digital content, or manage your own blog … whether you’re on staff, a freelancer, syndicated, self-syndicated or independent, we invite you to join the National Society of Newspaper Columnists.
We heartily encourage membership from online and multimedia columnists, bloggers and similar Web reporters, commentators, analysts, humorists and essayists.
