LINKS TO PROFESSIONAL WRITING BODIES
Alliance of Independent Authors
Their website says:
“The Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLi) is the premier membership association for self-publishing authors. A non-profit, ALLi provides trusted advice and education, supportive guidance, and a wide range of benefits and resources, within a friendly and accessible community of successful indie authors and advisors.”
The Society of Indexers
“The Society of Indexers promotes indexing, the quality of indexes and the profession of indexing. Founded in 1957, it is the only autonomous professional body for indexers in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and membership is open to any person who is or intends to be directly involved in indexing.”
(There is a Directory on their website to enable you to locate suitable indexers for your writing should it require one.)
