New Free Site for Fiction Market Listings

I get a ton of newsletters about writing. Well, maybe not a "ton", because I'm not sure they've figured out a way to measure the actual weight of online proliferation of reading material. Anyway ...

This morning I received Erika Dreifus' "The Practicing Writer" newsletter. There's always information on conferences, retreats, internships, contests, and markets packed into her newsletters. It's on my "do not unsub" list.

It seems Erika is discontinuing the sale of her fiction markets e-books because she's happened upon a free site offering much of the same information. She is now offering her e-books for free even though they contain more markets for fiction, essays, and poetry, than does the free site.

Check it out! Duotrope

And while you're at it sign up for a look at The Practicing Writer newsletter.

Hi, Erika Dreifus here. Thanks so much for the announcement. Just to clarify--it's just the fiction markets e-book that's now available for free, exactly for the reason you've cited. The other e-books are still available, but for a charge. Thanks again!
