Fixed Resources:
The Oatmeal - handy for grammar reminders
Plutchik's Wheel - describing and relating human emotions; can be very useful when stuck on a scene/character reaction
Sacred Texts - Like Wikipedia, a great source of inspiration for magical/fantasy works
Blogs:
The Editor's Blog - handy for grammar, manuscript preparation, and general writing advice. Now with subscription content.
Bad Language - focused primarily on marketing, and the management of a professional writing environment
Business Writing - handy for general improvement
Grammarist - will fix all of your creeping misuses of common phrases and words; sometimes has interesting interviews
Dictionary.com Word of the Day - because you can never have a big enough vocabulary. Very mixed quality - sometimes it's a common word, sometimes it's more of a phrase or a colloquialism, sometimes it's an archaic gem that sounds beautiful but you'll never get to use - but for 5 seconds of your day, it's worth it.
