I'm going to make a shameless plug for another site because I think it's a great resource for writers wanting to take their work to the next level and publish. Hope Clark offers a free newsletter which lists various writing contests that require no or nominal entry fees.
Contests are a great way to learn to polish your work, whether or not you win. You learn a lot by following each contest's guidelines and submitting your work for another's scrutiny.
