http://www.sfwa.org - The Science Fiction Writers Association. Targetted for Sci-Fi and Fantasy, this site has incredible articles for writing, from creating through getting published. No matter what your genre, you've got to go here! http://www.horror.org - For horror writers (Go figure!) but, like the SFWA, it has a lot of good articles to help improve your writing, plus a large list of links to other sites. http://www.writing-world.com/ This site also has on-line classes for learning how to write query letters, etc. http://www.hollywoodnet.com/indexmain.html Forum boards for information on screen plays. Some forum boards require membership (having sold at least 1 screen play.) but even the non-membership boards are packed with info. http://www.hollywoodnet.com/Crime/index.html - Another Hollywood.net board, but for crime writing. Most of the boards require membership, but the ones that don't are just incredible. If you want to write a crime story, go through and read all the posts. You'll learn a lot. I could go on for pages, but those are some of the best I've found. What are some other great sites out there?

I've belonged to a very friendly group called 'WriteThing'. For writers of all experiences. They do lots of exercises, have publishing tips and a good crit system amongst other things. Sadly, I haven't been active in the group for many months. Jack
