"Your opinion on getting published"

 I'm all about the networking. it has been, for me, the best way to communicate with like minded individuals and to improve my writing. the chicago area has a yearly publication called Rhino that is all individual submissions, the twist is every new submission must relate back in some way to a submission in the previous year. gets you purchasing and reading the book. there is some excellent writing in it, and it seems a great way to get a foot in the door, so to speak.

and this is just me, but I think I write better when I am just doing it for me, most of the time I'm the only one who reads what I write anyhow!
