- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by some in the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
Supplement Amount WhyCayenne Apply 0.025 to 0.075% capsaicin ointment four times per day over painful areas [3 stars]Capsaicin, an extract of cayenne pepper, appears to work by blocking pain signals and may ease many types of chronic pain when applied regularly to the skin.Cayenne Topical
(Postherpetic Neuralgia)
Apply 0.025 to 0.075% capsaicin ointment four times per day over painful areas [3 stars]A component of cayenne pepper known as capsaicin can be applied as a cream or ointment to soothe the pain of postherpetic neuralgia.L-Tryptophan 2 to 4 grams per day [3 stars]Double-blind research has also shown that oral L-tryptophan can increase tolerance to acute pain.Corydalis Take an amount supplying 75 mg per day of tetrahydropalmatine (THP) [2 stars]Preliminary reports indicate that THP (an alkaloid from the plant corydalis) may be effective in reducing nerve pain.Phenylalanine 1,500 mg daily [2 stars]D-phenylalanine (DPA) decreases pain by blocking the enzymes that break down the body's natural painkillers. Clinical studies suggest DPA may inhibit some types of chronic pain.American Scullcap Refer to label instructions [1 star]American skullcap has been historically used to relieve pain.Cramp Bark Refer to label instructions [1 star]Crampbark has been historically used to relieve pain.Jamaica Dogwood Refer to label instructions [1 star]Piscidia erythrina has been historically used to relieve pain.Passion Flower Refer to label instructions [1 star]Passion flower has been historically used to relieve pain.Phyllanthus Refer to label instructions [1 star]Extracts of phyllanthus plants have shown a marked ability to decrease pain, apparently by decreasing inflammation. With liver-protective properties, they may be safer than drugs such as acetaminophen, which has toxicity to the liver.Valerian Refer to label instructions [1 star]Valerian has been historically used to relieve pain.Vitamin B12 Refer to label instructions [1 star]Vitamin B12 appears to have pain-killing properties. In people with vertebral pain syndromes, injections of massive amounts of vitamin B12 have reportedly relieved pain.White Willow Refer to label instructions [1 star]Willow bark has been used for centuries to decrease pain and inflammation. It appears to work by interfering with the process of inflammation and the pain-producing nerves in the spinal cord.
About This Condition
Pain is a sensation that is transmitted from an area of tissue damage or stress along the sensory nerves to the brain. The brain interprets the information as the sensation of pain.
Substances that decrease pain either interfere with the ability of nerves to conduct messages, or alter the brain's capacity to receive sensations.
Pain may be a symptom of an underlying pathological condition, such as inflammation. It may also be due to other causes, such as bruising, infection, burns, headaches, and sprains and strains. Use caution when treating pain without understanding its cause-this may delay diagnosis of conditions that could continue to worsen without medical attention.

Comments about Tiger Balm® Pain Relieving Patch:
Used this for chronic neck pain in lieu of Tiger Balm from a bottle. It's less messy, more effective than the balm itself (because the pad stays on) and very economical. Wasn't sure if medicine would be as strong as Tiger Balm but it was - and even better than balm, in fact. Adhesive isn't the strongest, and in "bendy" places like my neck this posed a slight problem. But I used a couple of strips of tape and it was fine. I bought several boxes and gave a couple to my parents.

Licensing Fees, Procedures A new music licensing agreement has been reached between the music and meeting industries, simplifying the reporting process and reducing costs for meeting organizers. Industry organizations--Meeting Professionals International (MPI), the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE), the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA), and the Religious Conference Management Association (RCMA)--collaborated in recent negotiations with Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI).
Retroactive to January 1, 1997, the new agreement halves the rate for live performances at meetings and conventions: Where live or recorded music is played, rates will be five cents per attendee, with a cap not to exceed the event's total registration. That means if there are 1,000 attendees at your meeting, your maximum charge will be $50, even if you play music at multiple events. Those rates are set through the year 2000; after that there may be increases based on the Consumer Price Index. The minimum rate for a licensing contract has been decreased from $175 to $100. The annual reporting and payment form has been simplified and fits on a postcard.
Planners will no longer have to worry about what music they can use and when they need additional licenses. Every licensee will receive a CD-ROM catalog listing all BMI-licensed music. The CD-ROM will be updated quarterly; for weekly updates, planners can check BMI's Web site (http://bmi.com).
This agreement is separate from the 1990 meetings industry agreement with the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). No negotiations are planned for a new ASCAP agreement.
Hotel Deals in the News * The latest episode in the ongoing saga of Hilton Hotels Corporation's $6.5 billion hostile bid for ITT Sheraton Corporation finds Sheraton continuing to shed assets--even hotels--as it tries to strengthen its financial position and avoid a shareholder vote in favor of the would-be buyer. A judge rejected Hilton's attempt to force ITT Sheraton to hold its annual shareholders meeting in May; that meeting now is expected to take place in November. ITT Sheraton's most dramatic cost-cutting move came in April when the company slashed its New York headquarters staff from 200 to 75.
* Patriot American Hospitality has acquired Wyndham Hotel Corporation for $1.1 billion in stock, cash, and assumption of debt. Patriot will acquire Wyndham's portfolio of 23 owned or leased hotels, plus management and franchise agreements for Wyndham's 79 managed and franchised properties throughout North America. It will also acquire 11 Wyndham-branded hotels from the Trammell Crow family. Patriot's post-merger portfolio will include 107 hotels with approximately 25,000 rooms. Patriot now owns three upscale brands: Wyndham, Carefree Resorts, and Grand Heritage.
* After sealing its deal to buy Renaissance Hotels & Resorts International for $1 billion, Marriott International announced first-quarter earnings that were 22 percent higher than the first quarter of 1996. The Renaissance deal added 150 properties, bringing Marriott Lodging's portfolio to 1,366 properties with more than 276,000 rooms. Marriott plans to increase that to 400,000 rooms by 2001.
* Fairmont Hotels recently announced its 25th consecutive quarter of record results as it continues a major expansion. Its acquisition of The Plaza in New York City and the Fairmont Copley Plaza in Boston brought its total luxury portfolio to seven. The chain, striving to create a "grand hotel" niche, plans to add ten more properties by 2000.
* Hyatt Hotels & Resorts announced a $1 billion acquisition and expansion earlier this year, with plans to acquire 20 to 30 upscale hotels and resorts in the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean over a three-year period. Its most recent deals: the purchase of the Grand Hyatt San Francisco, which Hyatt has managed since 1973, and the management and part-ownership of the Hotel Nikko Atlanta, renamed the Grand Hyatt Atlanta. (Hyatt's ownership partner in the Atlanta property is Blackstone Real Estate Partners.)
* Pan Pacific Hotels & Resorts has announced a major expansion in Asia during this year. A total of six new properties--four in Malaysia, one in Japan, and one in the Philippines--will bring Pan Pacific's portfolio up to 22 properties in 13 countries. The new hotels are The Pan Pacific Hotel Yokohama, Japan; Pan Pacific Hotel Manila, Philippines; and the Pan Pacific Sutera Hotel Kota Kinabalu, Pan Pacific Kuala Lumpur International Airport Hotel, Pan Pacific Hotel Malacca, and Pan Pacific Leader Hotel Penang, all in Malaysia.
* New World Hotels International Limited plans a 40 percent expansion in Asia during the next three years, adding new hotels in Hanoi, Vietnam; Bangkok, Thai- land; Dalian, Shanghai, and Nanjing, China; and Jakarta, Indonesia.
* Bristol Hotel Company recently paid Bass plc $660 million for 60 full-service Holiday Inns in the U.S. and Canada. Bristol has plans to invest $200 million in capital improvements at the new properties over the next three years. The Dallas-based company also has announced a public stock offering of up to 2.875 million new shares of common stock of the company.
Analysts Predict Strong Hotel Market Will Continue The hotel business was so profitable in 1996, it made up for all the losses it experienced from 1982 to 1995. With predictions that 1997 will end up even better, it was easy for the 1,500 attendees at the 1997 Hospitality Industry Investment Conference to believe that they lived in the best of all possible worlds.
Speakers at the three-day conference, sponsored by the New York University (NYU) Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Travel Administration and held at Manhattan's Waldorf-Astoria hotel, were confident that although room supply is up 3.1 percent this year and demand up only 2.8 percent, rates will continue to rise (six percent in 1997) wherever there is still a shortage of hotel rooms.
In 1996, 90,000 new hotel rooms were added in the U.S. in more than 1,000 new hotels; 1997 will bring an additional 120,000 rooms. Outlook for the future? "If we [continue to build hotel rooms at this pace] again in 1998, it could really hurt," says Randall A. Smith, CEO of Smith Travel Research. Nevertheless, hotel analyst Stephen Rushmore, president of HVS International, expects deluxe property ($100 a night and up) starts to increase through the year 2000, though upscale ($75 to $100 a night) and middle- level building will hit a plateau.
"The industry has a short memory," remarked Sherwood (Woody) Weiser, chairman and CEO of Carnival Hotels & Resorts. "It traditionally develops where the capital is available whether there is or is not a need. Although in some areas, [the growth in hotel inventory] is justified." He urged investors at the conference to "watch the indicators of supply and demand very carefully."
Let Us Entertain You Weiser, who foresees entertainment partnerships for Carnival, said the hotel/hospitality industry is in the entertainment industry and predicted the development of "entertainment villages" with accommodations, restaurants, meeting space, attractions, shopping, and gaming. Carreker agreed, saying that the baby boomers "want to work in a fun place" and that meeting sites with "lots of amenities" were an important strategy.
This trend may be a partial answer to why the hotel industry's deluxe chain segment is doing so well, with demand, occupancies, rates, REVPAR (revenue per average room), and conversions, all increasing. Independent hotels (including casino properties) have declined in supply as many affiliate with chains, but they, too, have seen a rise in demand and occupancy, as well as room rates. And that luxury segment of the market that analysts refer to as "upper upscale" has seen a 12 percent increase in rooms and a 14.1 percent rise in demand with accompanying revenue increases, creating a big impact on industry statistics.
The U.S. cities in which hotel investors are seeing the best return are (in order) New York, Honolulu, San Francisco, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angles, and Anaheim. The cities where hotel investment is faring the least well are New Orleans, San Antonio, Minneapolis, St. Louis, and Washington, DC, all largely due to overbuilding.--Connie Goldstein

New MPI President Aims for Globalism "I want members everywhere to be able to benefit from Meeting Professionals International [MPI] programs and take part in its governance," says MPI's president-elect Anna Lee Chabot, CMP, who officially began her term July 1. Currently the head of the meetings and assemblies section for the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada in Ottawa, Chabot is the fifth female and second Canadian to serve as MPI president.
Although international in name, MPI is, in fact, mostly a North American organization. Chabot aims to change that.
But she doesn't intend to impose the North American methods of organizing membership on the rest of the world. "I think we're open to the idea that there may be different ways of organizing our membership in other regions of the world," she says. "To go in and create our own bureau and chapter network may not be the most efficient way of bringing MPI's products and services to another region."
Chabot points to the recent alliance with the Meetings Industry Association of Australia as a possible model for MPI's global expansion. The Australian association has been given a corresponding affiliate member status, enabling its members to join MPI. "It is not our intention to reinvent the wheel," Chabot says. "If we can extend the reach of our programming by working with existing societies and associations that have the same goals, then we are all further ahead."

Independent Meeting Planners Form Alliance The newly formed Alliance for Meeting Management Consultants (AMMC) wasn't planning to solicit membership until this summer, but interest has been so great, membership information is being sent out right away, reports Toni Sylvester, CMP, AMMC secretary-treasurer, and president of Sylvester Management Corporation in Irmo, SC.
One of the first goals of the organization is to set up a financial pool that will enable AMMC members to launch joint marketing efforts. Other AMMC goals are to establish an identity for the meeting management consultant industry both within the meetings industry and in the general business community; to provide networking and education opportunities for members; and to promote high standards and ethics among consultants.
Sylvester created AMMC along with Lynne K. Tiras, CMP, president of International Meeting Managers of Houston; and Earlene J. Hill, CMP, of Hill Management Concepts, Inc. in St. Louis.
AMMC holds its first meeting July 24 in Washington, DC. The one-day session will be led by Hugh K. Lee, president of the center for Organization Development in Webster, NY.
AMMC membership dues are $250. In addition, members must contribute a minimum of $500 to the marketing pool. (The minimum fee is set by members.) Call Toni Sylvester at (800) 200-2774.
International News * As part of its $800,000 "Discover Bermuda" marketing campaign launched in June, the Bermuda Department of Tourism is forming the "Bermuda Explorers Club," open to travel professionals who have either made a site visit to Bermuda or held a program there. Corporate, incentive, and association planners who qualify will receive a membership certificate and a quarterly newsletter updating them on the latest developments in hotels, facilities, attractions, and events.
Other developments: A golf course and meeting-size hotel are planned for the site of the old Naval Annex in Southampton. The Sonesta Beach Resort and Marriott Castle Harbour Resort are completely refurbished; and the Elbow Beach Hotel is now managed by the Rafael Group.
* The Ninth Annual Report on Europe, published this spring by the European Federation of Conference Towns (EFCT), paints a picture of vibrant growth in meetings among the 80 EFCT member towns. Widespread investment in new and renovated facilities has followed a record year in 1996 for several cities, including Vienna, Barcelona, Helsinki, Paris, and Birmingham (England).
Geoffrey Smith, the report's editor, says the one disappointment was the failure of the European Union Budget Committee to endorse a project designed to provide marketing and promotional support to the tourism and conference industries. At the same time, he adds, competition is becoming ever more intensive. "Planners are faced with many options for destinations, and new facilities are coming on stream all the time." The EFCT report is available on the Internet at http://www.ua.ac.be/Tour Web/EFCT.html.

The mood at the opening ceremonies was jubilant as the European Incentive & Business Travel & Meetings Exhibition (EIBTM) celebrated its tenth anniversary in Geneva in May. From 3,000 attendees ten years ago to 7,000 today, from 360 exhibitors to 2,250, EIBTM's growth is nothing less then impressive.
Making news at the show was the kickoff of a marketing alliance known as the Historic Conference Centres of Europe. Members are at least 100 years old, promise state-of-the-art technology and superior service and management standards, and are located in cities known for their rich cultural heritage. The 11 founding members are Grazer Congress, Graz, Austria; Hofburg Congress Center, Vienna; Beurs von Berlage, Amsterdam; Flanders Congress & Concert Centre, Antwerp, Belgium; Palais des Papes, Avignon, France; Dublin Castle Conference Centre; CCM Congress Centre Rosengarten, Mannheim, Germany; Palazzo del Polpolo, Orvieto (Italy); Palacio da Bolsa, Porto, Portugal; Norra Latin, Stockholm; and Das Kurhaus, Wiesbaden, Germany.
Also big news: the alliance between five major airlines--United, Air Canada, Lufthansa, SAS, and Thai Airways--known as the Star Alliance. The agreement gives frequent flyers mileage awards in each partner's program and privileges at alliance airport lounges worldwide.
The Ministry of Tourism in Nassau, the Bahamas, took the top prize in EIBTM's annual Greening of Business Tourism awards for its sustainable tourism efforts and ecotourism awareness months. Other winners: Princess Cruise Lines; Swissair; ANA Hotels International; Honey Island Swamp Tours, New Orleans; Cairns Convention Center, Australia; Discovery Ecotourism, Jordan; Tourism Vancouver, Canada; Green City, Denmark; and Tropical Nature and Cultural Safaris, Kenya.
Insurance Conference Planner co-hosted a group of readers during a pre-show site inspection trip to Vienna. There, they toured palaces, and hotels that were palaces, including the 245-room Radisson SAS Palais and the Imperial, with 130 luxurious guest rooms. Other stops included the 460-room Inter-Continental, with the city's largest ballroom; the 313-room Marriott; and the 309-room Renaissance. The sightseeing highlight was the 1,441-room, butter-yellow Schonbrunn, the Habsburgs' summer palace.
EIBTM 1998 is scheduled for May 12 to 14 at the Palexpo Exhibition Center in Geneva.

Insurance Notes * As the insurance industry goes, so go its associations. The board of the Life Insurance Conference (LIC), a small trade association of home service and pre-need companies, hopes to merge with the Life Office Management Association (LOMA) this summer. "The [life insurance] industry is shrinking," says Bruce Dalzell, LIC president. "We felt it was a good time to seek a partner."
While not final at press time--LIC members will vote by proxy on their board's recommendation to merge--Dalzell is confident that a partnership is what's needed to keep this small specialty association active. If the merger goes through, LIC will become a council with its own board within LOMA and will be considered its own business unit. Currently, LIC has 61 insurance company members, 44 associate members, and a staff of three. LOMA's insurance company membership is close to 1,000 and the organization has a staff of 190. Dalzell says there are no plans, at present, to merge any of the eight small meetings he holds each year with any of LOMA's 25 meetings, but the possibility exists. He does, however, plan to make use of the LOMA meeting planning department. "It's going to be one of the first places I go," he says.
* Change of Address: Now you can find the Life Insurance Marketing Research Association (LIMRA) International at www.limra.com. The organization has redesigned its Web site to include a Database Sampler, containing abstracts of selected LIMRA research reports, products, and services. Also new at the site: the "hot topic of the week," reflecting the subject of the most calls to LIMRA during the previous week.
* The Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) 1997 Product Catalog is now available. The catalog covers MDRT's selling tools, publications, audio- and videocassettes, professional recognition pieces, and gifts. Call (847) 692-6378 or fax (847) 518-8921.
* Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company real estate equities manager, Cornerstone Real Estate Advisers Inc., announced in May that MassMutual has purchased the Hotel du Parc in Montreal, Quebec for more than $12 million from Crowne Life Insurance Company. The 364-room conference hotel will be completely renovated by February.

What Defines a Bear Market?
Any time the stock market falls, pain is felt by investors. The severity of the fall determines how it is categorized and helps to provide a sense of how quickly a rebound may occur. The three categories are a pullback (a decline of 5%–10%), a correction (a drop of 10%–20%) and a bear market (a plunge of 20% or more).
This past October, the S&P 500 briefly fell by more than 20% from its 2011 highs, putting it in bear market territory. A quick reversal lessened the severity of the large-cap index's fall, making the drop a severe market correction as of press time.
When calculating performance numbers for our fund guides and our stock screens, we look at the performance of several indexes to determine if a new bear market (or bull market) period has started. Based on the data as of September 30, we concluded that stocks were not in a bear market. There were exceptions, as some markets and sectors had plunged by more than 20%, but such a big plunge was not evident across the majority of the indexes we reviewed.

Mike Slive is a good business man. I'll reserve judgement on how good a commissioner he is when the over signing issue is dealt with (or not).
Mike Slive is a good commissioner.
Oh, many of you out there don't like him because he's probably not done enough for your favorite school. He also oversees the SEC's officials, for which he's taken plenty of flak. And some folks might even take issue with all of the NCAA rumors and allegations that exist across the league — under his watch — these days. But the man is still a good commissioner.
Why? Because he brings in a lot of cash. And that's Job One.
Kyle Veazey of The Jackson Clarion-Ledger grabbed the SEC's most recent IRS information and did some math. He found that the two new mega-deals that Slive recently brokered with CBS and ESPN has more than doubled the league's income from media rights, as expected:
|TV/Satellite Radio Revenue
|Postseason Event Revenue
|Media + Postseason Revenue
|Avg. Cut per School
|Sept '08 – Aug '09
|$60.1 million
|$78.8 million
|$138.9 million
|$13.03 million
|Sept '09 – Aug '10
|$153.3 million
|$80.9 million
|$234.2 million
|$18.28 million
Bringing in $5 million more per year per school is the kind of work that impresses Slive's bosses — the league's presidents and chancellors.
Slive will be less than a week past his 72nd birthday when his contract expires on July 31st of next year. If he chooses not to continue past 72 — his predecessor Roy Kramer retired at that age — then the SEC will have some very big shoes to fill.
Whether the man currently in those shoes is popular or not, Slive has overseen an unmatched era of SEC dominance on the football field. And he's also made everyone involved a lot more money.

Mango Passport® utilizes our Intuitive Language Construction® http://mangolanguages.com/personal/ to teach all four key components of a language – vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and culture. Many other language learning programs focus heavily – or solely – on vocabulary without the other key elements needed for full conversational comprehension. Other programs teach random vocabulary and complex grammar skills that the average traveler will never need. Our content is focused on common conversations and cultural insights, so it will be more valuable and practical to use during your travels.
When buying Mango Passport®, you're required to create an account with a valid email address and password. This is required for two reasons:
- New customers-You will use this account information to activate your Passport desktop application once installed on your computer.
- Returning customers-If you've previously purchased Mango Languages, you can use this information to simplify future purchases and access your previous download information.
You will need a high speed Internet connection to initially purchase and download Mango Passport® and the accompanying Mango On-The-Go!® MP3 files. Once the Mango Desktop Application is installed and your lessons are downloaded, you'll be able to access your Mango lessons free of any Internet connection.
First make sure that your microphone is turned on and the volume is turned up. The Voice Compare feature is not available on every single slide. Look for the small box with a microphone icon in it next to the word or phrase on the slide. This will be located directly next to the box with the speaker in it that allows you to replay the native speaker's voice. Click on the box with the microphone to begin using the voice compare feature.After you have clicked the correct icon, you can begin voice recording by clickin the red "record" button on the right hand side of the box. This will prompt a "3…2…1″ countdown in the box. This is NOT a time, but rather a countdown to when you are able to begin speaking. Wait until the countdown finishes and then speak into the microphone. When you press red record button on the right hand side of the "Voice Compare" box, there are gray boxes that will flash yellow as you speak into the microphone. This emulates your local volume.
The voice recording automatically ends when you are done speaking, so you do not need to click the red "record" button again to stop the recording. After you are done recording, drag "your voice line" to adjust it so it aligns with the narrator's voice graph. Now, you can listen to each voice individually or at the same time to compare pronunciation and inflection.
The Mango Desktop Application is specifically designed to work with a desktop computer. However, our Mango Mobile App Consumer Edition can be downloaded for free and allows you to access the same great lessons on your iPhone, iPad or Android phone.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I utilized this card as an invitation to my wedding rehearsal luncheon. While replying via RSVP, more than a few people commented positively on the design of the card itself, such as "Great card!" Well, I thought so too! As a former graphic designer/ art director myself, I feel this card has got IT from a design sense! Love the simple visual metaphor of the male/ female chairs. Aesthetically well executed. Technically, the card felt great, good size and proportions, exquisite printing. Opted for the default green and blue color scheme. Perfect for early spring, and the knocked-out initials really pop off the darker chair backs. Fun! Love it!"
"This card is of great quality, print looks amazing. The professional review was wonderful as well. Highly recommend this card and Wedding Paper Divas. Can't wait to send them out!"
"The paper quality of this card was great. The color was very vibrant as well. The print on the card could have been a little crisper, but overall a very nice and impressive invitation."
"We were very pleased with our invitations, they arrived ahead of schedule and of great quality, the photo came out good. I would definitely recommend to others, we received many compliments, we used the raisin color."
"People are calling me to tell me how much they loved this card with the picture we chose. The paper quality was perfect, the photo clear and the shipping was fast. I would not hesitate to reccommend, and I have, this company, and this product. My order arrived ahead of schedule."

Furry Writers' Guild
|Furry Writers' Guild
drawn by Frank LeRenard
| Manager: Sean Rivercritic
Founder: Sean Silva
|Launch date
|April 26, 2010
|End Date
The Furry Writers' Guild is a furry writers' association with the aim of bringing writers of all levels of skill and ability together to help improve the quality of furry anthropomorphic fiction. Founded in April 2010 by Sean Silva and led since September 2013 by Sean Rivercritic, the Guild aspires to facilitate community building and information sharing between writers and readers of furry literature alike.
[edit] Mission
The purpose of the Furry Writers' Guild is to support, inform, elevate and promote quality writing and writers of anthropomorphic fiction.[1] The also are hosts the Cóyotl Awards, an annual juried award for "excellence in anthropomorphic literature", run by the Furry Writers' Guild since 2012.
[edit] Web site
At the core of the Guild is its website, which aims to bring together people and resources and organize them into a cohesive whole. It collects useful links and information from throughout the internet and the furry fandom, including various writing resources, articles, distributors and publishers of anthropomorphic related literature, and an up-to-date Furry Writer's Market listing many publishing opportunities throughout the community.
[edit] Fur Affinity group
On January 31, 2011, a group was formed on Fur Affinity for Guild members, aspiring members, and other interested parties. Anyone may freely watch the group, and by doing so, automatically receive updates of new publishing venues and other news to their Fur Affinity inbox. Guild members are also authorized to post the Guild icon on their Fur Affinity profile page.
[edit] Membership
Although the web site and forums are open to all, full membership in the Guild is only available to writers who have met certain criteria for publication.[2] Associate membership is offered on a case-by-case basis to "specific individuals who have made key contributions in the field of anthropomorphic fiction (such as editors and publishers)".
[edit] Eligibility
Membership in the Guild is free, but requires a writer to meet simple publishing criteria. Presently the available options are to either have at least one published entry in a paying venue, or two published works in non-paying venues. In either case, the written work must have anthropomorphic characters or themes. The publication venues themselves do not have to be inside the furry fandom, so long as the published work itself is appropriate.[3]
[edit] Benefits
Membership provides access to a members-only section within the forum[4] as well as providing announcements and advertisements for upcoming projects and publications through the website. It also provides recognition to its member authors and offers them a way to use their talents to improve furry fiction for everyone.
[edit] Members
Current members of the guild include:
