Creative writing a start

So I have an interest in creative writing and am considering it as a career, I will discuss this in this blog and talk about sites that help me with the field and finding employment in it. This is not just for me but for anyone interested feel free to share your own thoughts.

As a start http://fictionwriting.about.com/ is a good site for an overview on writing and a great deal of things related. From getting started to styles, to getting published.

If you are looking for some inspiration http://www.creativewritingprompts.com/ is a great place for inspiring prompts to get a good idea and get a story started.

And if you are looking for a community of writers check out writing.com its right in the name, you do have to sign up but I will look into it and report back.

So there is the long and short of it to use a colloquialism.
