About

Writer Advice, www.writeradvice.com, is a resource for writers. Since 1997, it has grown from an e-mailed research newsletter for writers into an e-zine that invites reader participation. Our quality fiction, memoirs, interviews, reviews, and articles reach readers around the globe.

The primary focus used to be author interviews, and editor B. Lynn Goodwin has had the privilege of corresponding with over 100 well-known and debut authors who have shared their experiences, insights, and inspiration with readers. Recent interviews are archived. 

While Goodwin continues to interview authors, the primary focus has moved to contests. We run four contests a year and give feedback to everyone who enters. Goodwin, who won awards for both her YA, Talent, and her memoir, Never Too Late: From Wannabe to Wife at 62, sends personal feedback to everyone who submits an entry to each contest. 

WriterAdvice also publishes the work of volunteer reviewers. Click on Guidelines to learn more about both. Please write to us if you would like to contribute.
