Creative Writing Online Resources

I recently suggested some items you can purchase in your bookstore, as well as a few online web resources that can aid the beginning writer in honing their craft or answering nagging questions. But there is another powerful resource (beyond simply reading, of course!) that is easily discovered and plentiful in nature.

While you wouldn't think the quality would be there (and in some cases, it's not, make no mistake) there is a TON of quality information on YouTube, of all places. From beginning concepts to character honing, you can truly find a full education's worth of information to sort through.

So if you are of a visual-learning mindset and want something a bit less dry than some static books or websites, why not take a browse through the list of videos available to your beck and call, 24 hours a day? If you find a particular video you like, make sure to check if that person has a series on writing- you may find your very own online mentor!
