Resources

Feel free to recommend resources you think should be added in the guest book or via email! These lists will be either sorted alphabetically or in the order I added things (in other words I am not sorting by importance or preference or anything useful). I will note that I haven't used all of these myself, some are just things I've seen recommended elsewhere.
