Links for Writers...

My forum at Coffee Time Romance. Check out the whole sitelots of great networking, information on other authors and just general great chat. Be sure to bring your mug, sit down and stay a while!

  

Romance Writers of America: A great place for writers of Romance to learn the craft, industry statistics, find local chapters. If you write romance, I highly recommend this organization!



Romance Junkies
- Wonder when your favorite authors next book is coming out? Stop by our Books by Release Date Calendar to see what's coming out this year.  What's happening this month? Find out about book signings, conferences & scheduled chats  



A community of category romance readers and writers. Cata-Romance originated as an e-mail loop in 1998 and since then has generated over 71,000 messages that range in subject from how to write a killer synopsis to how explicit a scene should be to the role of category romance novels in today's world. Not only is the Cata loop a 675+ member network of published and pre-published authors with a wealth of information and experiences, it is also a caring community that supports each other's dreams and ideas. And trust me, there's plenty of laughter. From our male members' one liners to Mary's 'Nestea Salutes' there's something for everyone.

Demystifying Publishing


Anna Louise Genoese, an editor at Tor Publishing, has this GREAT listing of information that all writers should read before submitting to an editor. I highly recommend it as a first stop for info!


The objectives of the GLVWG are to provide its members with a network of support and resources in the field of writing; to act as central information point for all activities in the field of writing and the publishing industry; and to advance the writing interests of its members
