The Long Write
http://thelongwrite.com/

* More insightful than the Collected Twitter Posts of Jar Jar Binks.

* More controversial than the implementation of decimal time.

* More entertaining than reading a history of object-oriented management strategies written in binary.

* Filled with more Fail than AmazonFail, RaceFail and the Fail Whale combined.

* Now with 20% more monkeys.

For your reading enjoyment we present the wise words and thoughtful thoughts of the unstoppable Sean Williams.

Jeff VanderMeer’s Booklife is now on sale.

I’ve read lots of books about writing and this is one of the best I’ve read.

It has great tips and advice for the personal and professional sides of a writer’s life.

It’s still in beta stage, so they don’t have a complete listing, but this web site is making articles from Australian newspapers (from 1803-1954) available online.  Great for historical research.
