Resources for Students and Educators … and Maybe the Rest of Us, Too

January 10, 2008 by Lillie 

An aspiring teen writer asked me about resources for young writers in response to my post about the EPIC New Voices writing competition. If you know of any resources for student writers that I haven’t mentioned here or in previous posts, please leave a comment. I like to encourage aspiring writers and to share useful resources like this one:

Librarian Chick offers a collection of links to educational resources and reference sites for those with big brains and small pocketbooks.

The site has hundreds of links in a couple dozen categories, including Books/Audio Books, Dictionary/Thesaurus, Home Library, Reference/Research, and Notes/Forms/Writing. One of the sites included in the writing category is Young Writers Society – forums, chats, blogs, and more for writers ages 13 to 25.

While the resources are all appropriate for students, there are plenty of valuable links for writers – and nonwriters – of all ages.
