Writing Info Sites

There are two writing sites that I really like that I'd like to recommend to people. WritersWeekly is one that I mentioned back in 2006. It is an on-line magazine in the best sense. It updates regularly, maintains its focus on helping writers learn to make more money, and pays writers for articles. Best part? The vast majority of the content is free. They also sponsor on-line classes that I have found beneficial. Those, obviously, are not free.

Another site I like is called MediaBistro. A lot of its content is free too, but my favorite parts of the site are not. To reach my favorite parts, you have to join AvantGuild. It has a reasonable yearly fee, which not only gives access to the proprietary sections, but also gives discounts on the classes that they sponsor. One of my favorite parts of the site is the "How to Pitch" section, where there are interviews with the editors of different magazines focusing on how to pitch to each of those mags.
