There are some really, really great books and blogs out there. And a lot of mediocre ones. And a lot that are self-help books about motivation and getting over "writer's block" that is really constant editing instead of banging out your chapter. - For craft, nothing beats K. M. Weiland's [Helping Writers Become Authors blog](https://www.helpingwritersbecomeauthors.com/) and books. The blog has entire sections on structure, character acts, and scenes. - Bell's Writing Your Novel From the Middle is fantastic, and Conflict & Suspense, and Plot & Structure are both great. - Larry Brooks (story physics), Scofield (the scene book), Vogler (on the hero's journey), and Maasss all have great books. - Cut to the Chase is great for Screenplays. I despise Save the Cat, but many people find it very useful.
