The Northland branch of the NZ Society of Authors was formed in 1996, and some of the original members still play central roles in our organisation today. Our group has expanded to include around 80 members who come from all over Northland — from farmland, bush, coastal settlements and the towns of Whangārei, Kaitaia, Kerikeri and Dargaville. If you are a writer residing in Northland and interested in finding out more about writing activities in Northland, then you are in the right place.
