I came across this site the other day and found it had quite a bit of helpful information. Here's the welcome message:
"Welcome to Writing Fiction Right. Learning to write well is the task of anyone wanting to be published in fiction. Publishers are looking for dynamic plots, believable characters, realistic dialogue, deep emotion and stories that hook readers. If you want to write quality fiction, then hopefully this blog can provide you with some helpful information. www.gailmartin.com"

Okay, so I haven't really used this a whole bunch yet, but I just like the idea of having a dictionary and a thesaurus at the same place when I'm on the go. It's very visual too, which I like a lot.
Writer's Digest of course has a wealth of information. But many prefer not to pay the fee to get at it. Still, I appreciated their 101 Best Websites for Writers article, which you can access for free.
