Opportunities for Writers (Who haven't completed their book yet)

It’s a phenomenal achievement to write a book. Whether it’s a collection of poetry or short stories, a novel, or a work of non-fiction, it takes a lot. And, even though more and more books are being published each year, if you’ve completed this monumental task you are still in the minority. Ask around and see if anyone else you know has written a book. Unless you’re living in a writer’s commune (and if you are please forward me the contact info), then you’re pretty special.

I’ve put together a short list of opportunities for new writers that will help you experience a little bit of that elation. And, hopefully this will help encourage you to reach that next level.
