With todays new technology, most writers will now use the Internet for many things. Some things we use the net for are searching for a publisher, marketing, clubs for writers, jobs for writer's, and much more. This is only a few of the things that I will be listing throughout the contents of this book. I will be listing web site addresses and a little more about these resources on the net. You may visit the sites to find out more about them.
I also know as a writer many of these places can be hard to find, especially markets for promotion; to announce our published books. So I will, in addition, list places you can promote your published writings as well.
My hopes in writing this novel are to help fellow writers like you. I enjoy helping other writers like myself, as I know from my very own experience that these resources can be difficult to find at times. In addition, I hope that you find On the Net, Resource Guide for Writers very helpful.

Don't Get Burned: Researching and Evaluating Writing Contests
By Lenore Wright
Hundreds of writing contests tempt novelists and screenwriters with the lure of prize money, instant film industry contacts and personal feedback from film and publishing professionals. But contests can be costly. Writers should choose intelligently. Before you write that check, research and evaluate the contests that interest you. Narrow down your choices to the best contests for you personally and the best ones for your scripts. These guidelines might help: Tips for Researching Contests • Check out their Web site
Nearly all contests have an online page with guidelines and other vital details. I know it's tempting to salivate over the prize list and ignore the other features available on the site. Don't let the promised goodies distract you > $10,000 and a trip to Hollywood to meet the film industry movers and shakers you dream of impressing. You're on a mission. You need to find out if the contest has preferences regarding the subject matter of the script, the ethnicity/gender of the author or the area where the writer resides. Shortcut: At the very least read the FAQ page and note the submission deadline.

The Ultimate NETwork for Fiction Writers and Readers
Don't Get Burned: Researching and Evaluating Writing Contests
By Lenore Wright Tips for Evaluating Contests
• Sponsors
The people or companies sponsoring the contest should identify themselves and they should have film industry credentials. Some contests feature a well-known director, actor, publishing company honcho or producer as a nominal sponsor, implying that this person will read the final scripts or at least the winning one. If that is so, it should be stated in their guidelines or on their Web site - don't just assume it's true. • Judges
Some contests post their judges' names and credentials. I find this reassuring; however many legitimate contests don't make this information available for various reasons, not necessarily because they're hiding something shady. A general guideline: The less information the contest makes available, the more aggressively you should query the contest contacts before you write them a check. • Press releases
You want to win a contest that makes an effort to publicize their winners. When you come across the press releases of contests that tout their finalists or winners, resist pitching a rant at your agent; instead swallow your envy and jot down the contest details so you can enter the next time around.

Caveat Scriptor: A Brief Guide to Researching Literary Agents
Finding a literary agent is like moving to a new town and having to find a contractor to remodel your house and a mechanic to fix your car all at once. It has a strong element of Russian roulette. The union receives a steady stream of complaints from writers who have been defrauded and mistreated by agents, many of whom are really scam artists posing as agents. If you don't do your homework, you're likely to be another of their victims. On the other hand, if you do your homework as outlined here, you can be one of the lucky ones with an agent who works hard for you and advances your career.
NWU RESOURCES
NWU Agents Database. Information about agents gathered from the agents themselves, including the genres they do and don't handle, and comments by union members on agents they've worked with. Being anecdotal, the database is sometimes very useful and sometimes not. Reading it is like sitting at a table with a few other writers, exchanging war stories. The NWU Agents Database in only available to NWU members.

Students often spend HOURS upon HOURS of extra time researching on the net only to 16thCentury Renaissance Literaturelinks to writers of the 16th century
http://www.mrsjoyce.com/Student_Links/body_studentlinks_1_.html
Researching on the internet can often times be daunting and time consuming. Here are some tips on how to save yourself some time:
  • Know what you're researching before you begin. This sounds obvious but often times students think they know their subjects but really don't. Assuming you're researching literature, what category would your piece of literature fall under: British, American, or World Literature? What time period was it written and set? If you're unsure, look it up before you begin. Know at least the basics.
    Know the basics about the internet. Are you familiar with terms such as URL, search engine, and hyperlink? If I seem to be speaking a foreign language here and you are under a time limit, I strongly suggest saving time and using the library as your main research tool. Students often spend HOURS upon HOURS of extra time researching on the net only to come up empty-handed, not to mention frustrated. Also, it helps to have someone who is more familiar with the internet help you while you learn the ropes.
