The RAWSISTAZ Affair
RAWSISTAZ Literary Group presented our 7th Annual Readers & Writers Conference December 8-13, 2008, held entirely online.
We are currently planning our 2010 event, which marks our 10-Year Anniversary. Stay tuned for further details.
The RAWSISTAZ Affair is an annual face-to-face reunion/gathering with online and offline book clubs, authors, readers, and other literary enthusiasts. 2008 marked the first year we've had the event entirely ONLINE, but is was our seventh year having the event.
RAWSISTAZ Literary Group was established in September 2000 and is committed to the support and promotion of books by, for and about African-Americans. We currently have an online book club, a literary hang-out for readers and writers with approximately 600 members across the country, a review team called The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers with a repository of over 5000 reviews, and local chapters in eight major cities.
We thank you for participating in our conference and hope you enjoy hanging out in cyberspace with us.
