The following sites (in no particular order) give invaluable information about the process of becoming published:
Insider Blogs
Agent Kristin Nelson's Pub Rants blog
Agent Nathan Bransford's blog
Agent Jonathan Lyons' blog
Agent Jennifer Jackson's blog
The Rejecter is the blog of an anonymous assistant to a literary agent
Anonymous agent Miss Snark's blog is no longer active, but lives on in archive
The Miss Snark posts are sorted by subject here at the Snarkives
Online Communities
Absolute Write is a community for writers of all levels, for discussion of both craft and the business of publishing
Backspace is also a community for writers; costs money to join (I recommend Backspace as a "next step" community after getting a book deal)
Agent Reference and Scam Busting
Agent Query is a great place to start an agent search
Writer Beware helps writers avoid publishing scams
Preditors and Editors helps writers evaluate agents and publishers (Note: agents and publishers are indexed here by first name of the agency--even if it's the first, not last, name of a person)
