Online Resources/Communities
I came across www.writelink.co.uk from an advert in Writers’ Forum. There are 2 types of membership: one is free which allows for reading the site, and the other is a writer’s membership which has a fee. There are details of more competitions there.
Came across www.slinglink.co.uk from someone in OUSA A215. Membership is free. Someone set up an A215 messageboard on the forum.
