Writer's Groups
If you are a writer interested in becoming published, I strongly recommend that you join a writers' group. You will find a wealth of information, contacts to help further your career, and learning opportunities to grow your craft.
I belong to the American Christian Fiction Writers and have since 2006. This is a great organization if you are interested in publishing in the Inspirational market. If you are in the Oklahoma City metro area, check out our local ACFW chapter: OKC Christian Fiction Writers.
Another large group is Romance Writers of America (RWA). They have many local chapters as well as online chapters.
If you are interested in writing for children or young adults, check out SCBWI.
