Note from Anastasia: Julia & Katie will be going on hiatus with me beginning next week and will return to posting when I do.

Smart Girl, founded by Isabel Walcott, aims to create a site "just for girls," with content that they're excited about. Isabel's mission in creating the site was "to make something girls want, and to give them a place online where they're in charge." The site has some awesome "mentor journals," interesting reviews, DIY instructions. There are also tons of recent writing submissions, including poetry. The site is well-designed and recently updated, featuring plenty of "real girl" advice, stories and submissions, without all the glossy over-hyped adulthood pushed on young girls by many other "girls" sites and magazines.
