Joining A Creative Writing Website

By Miranda Sweeney


Many creative writers have a hard time getting their work published simply because they do not have the connections in order to shoot out their works to the public. Nowadays, one does not need to really worry so much about that problem any more simply because there is now such a thing called the internet. There is such a thing called a creative writing website wherein amateur writers may actually share their work.

Now do take note that there are so many types of creative writing websites that one may join depending on what purpose he would be joining the site. Each different site is created for a different purpose and writers just have to join the ones that would be aligned with their own purposes. From there, the amateur writers may now start building up their writing career.

Now the first on the list would be the sites that would allow one to share works with other people who are members. If one is familiar with the website known as Deviantart, then he will definitely know about the sites that are like online communities. Like Deviantart, these creative writing websites would allow the members to upload their works so that other people can see and comment about them.

Of course there would be those sites that would concentrate on helping writers sharpen their skills. Now these websites would provide online classes through videos, web seminars, or even power point presentations. Of course there are some of these classes that would be free but many of them would require writers to pay a certain fee.

If one believes that he already has some skills in writing, then he may actually want to try selling his work. There are sites that would allow one to post his works for clients to see. If the client likes that particular piece of work, then the client will contact the writer through a messaging option in the website and try to negotiate the price of it.

Now there are a lot of websites that would have a lot of competitions that would offer cash prizes. The great thing about these contests is that they would allow the writers to grab some fame. The organizers would always showcase the names of the winners of the contest.

Now if one would want to enter these types of contests, he would usually have to have an account in Paypal, Alertpay or other payment facilities that the organizers would make use of. The organizers would be sending the cash prize to the account of the winners. If one has that, then he may already register for the contest.

So if one would want to be able to have a good career in the field of creative writing, then maybe he should try joining one of these websites. He would definitely be able to use these platforms to grow as a writer. Through these websites, one can hone his skills and even gain a lot of recognition as a writer.
