Once you get past the ra ra enthusiasm of the forums, you need genuine criticism, both of your own work and of literature and the writing process in general. That is hard to find online, in part because of the sheer volume of ra ra out there, and also because there is less of an outlet for mature critical thought online compared to more traditional venues like writing classes, writing conferences, and books. There are some classic works on writing that are well worth your attention. Some of my favorites are - Aspects of the Novel, E.M. Forster - Reading like a Writer, Francine Prose - Story, Robert McKee - On Fairy Stories, JRR Tolkien - The Art of Fiction, John Gardner - The Writer's Journey, Christopher Vogler
