My professional affiliations include the Authors Guild and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, where I’m a member of the Writing Scams Committee. Along with other intrepid scam hunters, I help wage a vigorous campaign against the huge variety of literary schemes and frauds that prey on beginning writers. As part of that effort, I created and maintain Writer Beware, a compendium of warnings about literary fraud.
