AUTHORLINK.COM and WRITERSEDUCATION.COM, our sister site, provide an online marketing and educational resource center for the publishing industry.

WRITERSEDUCATION.COM (WE for short)offers an online learning library focused exclusively on learning to write and publish. Live classes are also offered in an exciting multimedia environment.

Parent site, Authorlink.com, continues to offer videos audios and text interviews with important authors as well as news, reviews and more.

The Authorlink and Writers Education blogs alert members to specific new postings on both sites. We strive to deliver authoritative,accurate, objective, timely information and education for authors, editors and agents. Perhaps that is why we are one of the longest-running online communities for publishing (since 1996), with a half million unique visitors each year.

Our separate unit, AUTHORLINK LITERARY GROUP, represents selected non-fiction and fiction writers. For more information on the agency, see authorlinkliterary.blogspot.com
