Sites for writers
By Cliff Ball
If you're a new writer and looking for websites to market your work or yourself as an author, searching for those places online takes a really long time, especially if you don't type in the right keywords on google or other search engines. I thought I'd post sites all in one place so you can find what you're looking for without searching for days on end. http://www.writersmarket.com Online version of the book Well, these are most of the sites I have on my favorites list. Hope these links are helpful to the beginning writer. Have fun surfing!
