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 March’s Website Wonders categorized into Writing, Reading, and Mind-Blowing.
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 This Month:
The Disposability of Ideas by Maggie Stiefvater
Aside from loving The Ravel Cycle series, Maggie Stiefvater continues her awesome blog (that I also love). This article in particular is great, because I think many writers struggle to write, which makes it even harder to throw out certain scenes…or even whole books. The creator makes the idea; the idea doesn’t make the creator. You can move on, and you can improve. Much love for this article.

Thank you for posting the tree site. Lately, I feel a special connection with nature, and trees are my foremost “new” obsession!
But great info as always! Thank you for your hard work always unfurling new interesting sites.
Trees are definitely a part of nature that I obsess over! Love them, glad to share them. 😀
