WriteOnCon is a free online conference for writers where many industry pros have been giving advice, critique, and general know-how posts that are so valuable you wouldn't want to miss it. Registering at the site gives you access to the forums, where you can post your queries or sample pages and get outstanding feedback. And who knows, maybe an agent will see your work.
I hope to see you there!
