It’s once again the first Wednesday of the month, and that means IWSG Day in the Spookiest Month of All – October! Every first Wednesday, members of the Insecure Writer’s Support Group get together to discuss our fear, hopes, and accomplishments. This month I’m taking on the (optional) question of the month: How do major […]
So it’s the first Wednesday of the month and that means IWSG Day and I completely forgot due to … I really don’t have a good excuse, except I’ve been busy. Writing-wise, I’ve been doing a lot of editing and backstory. Among other hopefully more productive things, I dug the first novel I ever wrote […]
Due to a family emergency, this past month has been kind of crazy. While we were out at lunch at a place I normally don’t go to, after leaving the hospital – again – me and my family member both got cute story cubes as part of our Kid’s Meals. Then, an adorable little girl […]
It’s the first Wednesday of the month and that means <drum roll> IWSG Day! This month’s optional question is: which is harder to come up with, a book title or the name of a character? To me, the obvious answer is Title of course. Don’t get me wrong. Character names can be tricky. I once […]

It’s IWSG Day again and the (optional) question of the month is: How do you celebrate when you achieve a writing goal/ finish a story? True confessions: I don’t always, because of the little voice inside my head that says don’t reward yourself for doing something of dubious usefulness. Do you reward yourself for indulging in […]
Hard to believe it’s February already, but it is. That means today is IWSG Day and a week before Valentine’s Day, which makes it the perfect time for this optional question of the month. February 7 question – What do you love about the genre you write in most often? Okay, I may not write […]
Happy New Year and Happy IWSG Day! Hard to believe 2018 is here. Not sure about everyone else but here in the Northeast U.S. it’s been super cold and now they’re throwing out scary words like “bomb” to describe the weather. Fortunately, I’m not on the coast but the cold has made getting out of […]
Here it is, the first Wednesday in December. That means that it is 1) IWSG Day and 2) December. IWSG Day is the day when us members of the Insecure Writers Support Group get together and share updates and support and praise along the writers journey. And December means that 2017 will soon be over. […]
