I have a few I will post as they come through this month (I can't remember them all)

The Savvy Book Marketer http://bookmarketingmaven.typepad.com/ezine/ Always has a few good articles; it's worth scanning the titles to see if any apply to my current needs.

Writers Weekly Has articles and a nice listing of jobs/classifieds available.

Brian Judd's Newsletter (author of Beyond the Bookstore) Described on his site: Book Marketing Matters Newsletter is a free, bi-weekly, special-sales ezine with help for selling more books to non-bookstore markets. It contains regular columns by Dan Poynter, John Kremer, Marcella Smith, Rick Frishman, Eric Kampmann, Pam Lontos and Jan Nathan. It is filled with brief statements of facts to help you sell more books into non-traditional markets such as Wal-Mart, book clubs, airport stores, schools, the military, corporations, catalogs and niche markets.

writersdigest.com, --always a writers mainstay
writersmarket.com,--good site for company research, and market info
poet and writers (www.pw.org),--they publish a great bi monthly mag; also lists grant and fellowship info for writers.

winningwriters.com.--my most favorite site; they list poetry contests, and best of all, the site is free (you have the option to get a paid membership). Mr. Cohen is very helpful--i've emailed him a few times with writing and publishing questions and he didnt hesitate to guide me in the right direction.
