Reading & Writing
A good place for the aspiring children's book author to get started. The FAQ section gives a lot of practical information about the proper way to submit a book, agents, and general publishing in's and out's. Their member's list is an excellent resource, too.

This is where it all started for me. The Groundlings are an excellent improv/comedy troupe that has supplied a lot of talented actors, writers, and producers to the entertainment industry.

Check out the site for info on famous alums, classes, and show times.

Every November, this contest challenges authors to crank out a novel by the end of the month. It's a fun event designed to
defeat the procrastinator that lurks in the heart of every aspiring novelist. Give it a try if you want to go from saying "I should write a novel someday." to "I wrote a novel last month!".
