Whether you are using writing as a creative outlet, looking to find a path toward traditional publication, make a career as a freelancer, or start your own independent publishing business, the websites on this list can help make those goals a reality.
While some things about this list remain the same (like our goal of including sites that offer free or affordable content, free trials, or tiered memberships for services that are of high quality), this year’s list includes 28 new websites we’ve found particularly enjoyable or helpful. Plus, you’ll also find a new subsection in the Genre/Niche category: Short Fiction.
As always, we hope this list provides a springboard for all of your writing endeavors.
