Since its inception in 1997, The Writer's Hood has been a labor of love by its creators and staff. We feel the Hood fits a very necessary niche in the publishing industry. By assisting writers and furnishing readers with great content, we've accomplished what few other sites can claim. We've been doing it the longest. And we've been doing it all at no cost to the writer or reader.

Recently, the costs of providing a free on-line magazine have become critical.
We reviewed our options, which were:
1. Close up shop
2. Scale down our operations
3. Charge writers and readers for our services
4. Accept advertising in the form of pop-up windows and banner ads
5. Try to sell the magazine.

We felt none of these options were acceptable. Therefore we decided one of our viable options was to come directly to you, our readers, for assistance. While you read through The Writer's Hood, if you feel that we're providing a worthwhile service, and if you enjoy the content, we ask that you make a donation. We're not asking for large donations, a couple of dollars is fine. Although if you want to make a large donation we're not going to discourage you! But we need your help to keep The Writer's Hood on-line.

Our commitment to continue to provide free services to emerging and established authors as well as our readers remains just as strong today as the day we began. With your help, we can continue to provide you with great content.

If you have any questions on how you can help, please e-mail us.
