This is hopefully going to become a common posting on Maelstrom, a listing of ten helpful sites for writers on the net...later, will also include publishers, contests and other news on the industry, posted weekly. If you guys have any sites you would like to recommend, email them to me and I will post them the following week. Thank you all for your time and your interest. --TRJ
