Insecure Writer's Support Group


I’ve been meaning to join the IWSG for a couple months now; ever since I discovered it really. J It’s so cool to be able to share the things that have sent me on writing ups and downs and know that not only am I not the first one to experience these things, but also that others have experienced it before too. Plus you get to hear all the awesome success stories from authors dealing with the same kinds of things and that they overcame them! How cool is that? ^^ :D

I’ve been coming off of a writing slump and have been working to sit down and write every day even if it’s in the ten minutes I have been before heading into work. It’s going alright so far, and I even got to sit down for a couple hours today and do some much needed editing from my critique group’s notes on my novel’s prologue.  Woohoo! It’s progress, even if it’s little by little. ^^ J
If you're interested in joining IWSG, Alex Cavanaugh is the wonderful host and you can find his website here.
Happy writing everyone! ^^ :D

  1. I carry a little notebook with me so I can write when I'm waiting places...any bit of time I can get is writing time!

  2. I also struggle to find time to write, so I work on my manuscript in fits and starts myself. The Insecure Writers Group is a great place for venting all your insecurities. Welcome aboard!

  4. Welcome to IWSG. Alex is a great host and you can learn a lot from him about writing and social media. I am new to your blog and I would like to follow, but I did not see a google friend connect on your sidebar. Best of luck with your writing. It is good that you are out of your slump. I have a full time job and a house full of kids so I know how difficult it is to make the time. I try to get to the carpool line an hour early each day and use it for uninterrupted writing time.

    1. Thank you for stopping by Melissa! And thank you for pointing out my lack of a google friend connect in the sidebar. I'm still very new to blogging so I always appreciate hearing about how I can improve. I think I've got the google friend connect set up, but please let me know if you have any problems with it or if you see anything else that I should add. Best of luck in your writing as well! ^^ :D
