There are hundreds of thousands of websites about writing. A large percentage of these are selling something or looking for newbies who'll work for pennies. So when I come across a link that is actually useful, instead of just bookmarking it, I plan to post it here as well.
I've been reading Matthew Stibbe's Bad Language, a blog where he posts excellent writing advice. His post "How to be a freelance journalist" is especially worth a look. Good advice for beginners, but also helpful to more experienced writers.
