Father and Son

If you want to go fast, go alone. 

If you want to go far, go together.   -African proverb

Mission

Nectar Publishing was established in 2014 to advance the availability of literature with a Caribbean  scope or origin. CWA is an informal  collaboration of people who enjoy literature, writing and who have ties with Caribbean cultures. This collaboration promotes, encourages and supports aspiring and experienced writers. Through CWA activities such as  collective publication projects, (virtual) meetings, public readings, small critique groups, digital forums, courses, writers’ contests, and interaction with schools and civic organizations, CWA members hope to develop and stimulate more creative expression through the written word. 

Beautiful Nature

Caribbean locals, diaspora and avid supporters are eligible.

Become a CWA member

We welcome new CWA members to further the mission and to grow the Caribbean literary network. Becoming a member has benefits and can be as active or passive as you like. Written works of Caribbean authors still fall in the category of the under represented. The historic trade routes have provided an inheritance of colorful, cultural diversity in the Caribbean. While we celebrate this, we also realize that increasing the volume of literature with a Caribbean orientation is necessary to preserve and cherish our cultural identities, languages and values. We invite members to collaborate on publication projects and to help advocate the visibility of Caribbean literature. Becoming a member is currently free of charge.
