Every month, I share all of the websites I come across that I find helpful, humorous, or just awesome. Below, you’ll find all of July’s Website Wonders categorized into Writing, Reading, and Art.
If you enjoy these websites, be sure to follow me on Twitter because I share even more websites and photos like this there.
Favorite Article: Why You Should Aim for 100 Rejections A Year by Literary Hub I think this article both shows how hard it can be to get published and how much determination you must have to move forward. It’s both encouraging and honest, and I think a lot of writers could benefit from keeping “rejection” in mind as a necessary step forward.
For Writers:
Writing Tip: Eye Color by Mary C. Moore: This is SO true! Most of the time, eye color doesn’t matter. And most people have brown eyes…but apparently not in fiction. A great article.
Letting That Manuscript Go: An Agent’s Struggle: Also by Mary C. Moore, this article shows the other side of the publishing industry. Remember, agents are people, too.
The 120 Most Helpful Websites For Writers in 2015: So this is from last year but still really great!
For Readers:
Which one would you choose?
Want to support an author’s or illustrator’s new book but can’t afford to buy it? Here’s what you can do. A wonderful infograph.
CSI: Poetry. The life and death -ok just death- of poets: This was sent to me by the writer, and it’s really informative!
13 Sci-Fi Gadgets You Won’t Believe Already Exist: Love articles like this. So much fun (or maybe not so much fun) to see new technologies or existing strange ones.
Art:
The Monster Gallery: This designer took kids’ drawings and professionally drew them. It’s wonderful!
Characters from Classic Paintings Are Inserted into the Modern World: I love this awkward and magnificent portrait collection.
I hope you love these articles as much as I do!
