The Society of Southwestern Authors is a nonprofit association of writers, and other publishing professionals, founded in 1972. Its objective is to conduct a program of activities designed to:
- Promote mutually supportive friendship among writers.
- Provide recognition of members' achievements.
- Encourage and assist persons seeking to become published writers.
Once a year, the Society sponsors a two day Writers' Conference featuring expert speakers on topics of professional interest to writers of every genre. This conference is open to members and nonmembers alike.
