Looking for evil-mode resources for non vim users emacs beginners
Evil-mode/Vim provide nothing special for that. The only exception that comes to mind are the find-char/find-char-to commands which jump to or up-to a particular character in your line. But there is a single-file Emacs package called jump-char which provides this exact functionality and doesn't require you to switch between a "normal" mode and an "insert" mode to do it.

Looking for evil-mode resources for non vim users emacs beginners
If you want to try out some third-party packages in the beginning, I think the most "bang-for-your-buck" you'll get is with Avy. Also, expand-region. And specifically for writing: olivetti-mode, flyspell, dictionary, and Nicolas Rougier's Nano and Elegant Emacs setups.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing jump-char and olivetti you can also consider the following projects:
avy - Jump to things in Emacs tree-style
writeroom-mode - Writeroom-mode: distraction-free writing for Emacs.
evil-guide - Draft of a guide for using emacs with evil
fountain-mode - Emacs major mode for screenwriting in Fountain plain-text markup
expand-region.el - Emacs extension to increase selected region by semantic units.
visual-fill-column - Emacs mode for wrapping visual-line-mode buffers at fill-column.
nano-emacs - GNU Emacs / N Λ N O - Emacs made simple
Emacs-langtool - LanguageTool for Emacs
elegant-emacs - A very minimal but elegant emacs (I think)
org-appear - Toggle visibility of hidden Org mode element parts upon entering and leaving an element
evil-collection - A set of keybindings for evil-mode
