Newsletters are a great way to pick up information, be it a helpful writing tip or a new market to submit to, or even an organizational hint. Here are several email newsletters for writers (and they're all free):
- Worldwide Freelance Writer: Weekly newsletter. Contains a feature article, several writing markets, and related ads.
- Flash Fiction Newsletter: Monthly newsletter dealing with flash fiction (and some poetry and nonfiction). Contains markets, tips, subscriber news, and an "editor's pick" online venue.
- WritersWeekly: Weekly digest of website content from WritersWeekly.com. Contains article excerpts, letters to the editor, a "Whispers and Warnings" section, paying markets, and writing-related jobs.
- Food-Writing Newsletter: Bi-weekly newsletter "for writers who love food and food lovers who write." Contains an article or two on food writing, and prospective markets and jobs.
- The Poetry Market Ezine: Monthly newsletter. Contains publishing news, upcoming poetry contests, markets, and an in-depth poetry book review.
I subscribe to all of these newsletters and read as much of them as I can. You never know where you'll find that perfect new market.
On a side note, I just found out this week that I've been accepted into the Horror Writers Association. That's pretty cool.
Hey, you'll be in HWA with me. Cool. Thanks for the links. I'm gonna refer the members of my writing group to these.
