It’s hard to believe the condition the world is in It’s hard to believe the condition the world is in You can’t trust nobody and girl, you know it’s a sin — Jimmy Reed, Found Love, 1960

Like legendary bluesmen of old, writers regularly go down to the crossroads of the imagination, bringing back useful prescriptions for living. When you can’t believe the condition the world is in, you can trust writers to get you through.

What writers trust to get them through is the Writers Guild of America. The Writers Guild Awards celebrates its members by honoring excellence, vision and inspiration. We invite you stay with us for the B.B. King after party, which will also be a little like going down to the crossroads.
