Crazily enough, I think there are more of these out there than books on writing. I figured I'd add this to the never ending threads, because I saw that others found my suggested website for in-depth outlining helpful.
So here are my top three, though I'm sure I'll add more in the future:

http://thisblogisaploy.blogspot.com/201 ... s-day.html
She had an amazing amount of blogposts that have helped me in the past. This just happens to be the one I chose to highlight. I have gotten inspiration to helpful tips from this blog.

http://www.advancedfictionwriting.com/a ... ke-method/
This is the one that I had already suggested for an in-depth idea of outlining. There are more interesting articles to be found on this site as well.

http://critters.org/
Because I had to add at least one critique circle on here. This is my personal favorite.

So, give me some feedback on helpful websites you have found!

I briefly looked at the websites listed and will definitely have to spend more time reviewing them in depth. I think "thisblogisaploy" is the one I am most interested in. Here are two sites I really like.

Because of my new status, I cannot post a link. If you are interested, these are the two helpful sites I have found:
-the incompetent writer which features more technical material, and
- and In the Garden of Eva which is less technical and more into relating life to writing

Thanks for the original suggestions and those added by Randolph. I bookmarked several. The only one I had seen before was advancedfictionwriting. Another one people might try is advicetowriters, which I just found. There are many lists of do's and don'ts from famous authors, links to resources, blogs, articles, interviews, literary journals, podcasts, etc. etc. I haven't had a chance to get into it in depth yet, but it looks like a treasure trove.

The blog post you highlighted is very interesting. I'm not much of a writer, and I've been trying to hone that skill set. I can see how her "Triangle of Writing Metrics" could apply to the shorter things I attempt to write as well, like reviews and research papers.
