Here are some links some may find helpful:
Writer's Market dot com, no need to buy the annual edition, as it's all online. You can pay a monthly fee of $2.99 or an annual one of $29.99 for full access which includes your own Submissions Tracker, files for favourites, etc. Well worth it, imo.
Francis Ford Coppola's Zoetrope Studios is a terrific place for writers, screenwriters, composers, musicians, etc. For writing groups it is one of the best as there is a large number of people involved, so one gets really good and varied reviews. If I remember right, for every one story you submit, you have to review 5, or it may be 10. When you have done those, you get to read the reviews of yours, plus when you submit your story it is at the top of the pile as a new submission. Lots to explore and do at this site.
Some of the info may be a little out of date at this site, but it is still an interesting read about the future of non-conventional book publishing, with links: The Once and Future Book
