IWSG – January 2018



It’s time for another group posting of the IWSG: Insecure Writer’s Support Group! Time to release our fears to the world – or offer encouragement to those who are feeling neurotic. If you’d like to join us, click on the tab above and sign up. We post the first Wednesday of every month and encourage everyone to visit at least a dozen new blogs and leave a comment. Your words might be the encouragement someone needs.


Be sure to link to IWSG and display the badge in your post.

IWSG is the brainchild of our noble Ninja Captain and leader Alex J. Cavanaugh

Every month, a question is offered that members can answer in their IWSG Day post. These questions may prompt you to share advice, insight, a personal experience or story. Include your answer to the question in your IWSG post or let it inspire your post if you are struggling with something to say. Remember, the question is optional.

January 3 question – What steps have you taken or plan to take to put a schedule in place for your writing and publishing?
Twitter handle is @TheIWSG and hashtag is #IWSG

Aex’s awesome co-hosts for the January 3 posting of the IWSG are Tyrean Martinson, Ellen @ The Cynical Sailor, Megan Morgan, Jennifer Lane, and Rachna Chhabria!

Can you believe it’s 2018! Seems surreal for some reason. I almost didn’t post today because I couldn’t think of anything to say. Feels as if I’ve been invited to a party and I’ve just arrived at the front gate. I’ve no idea what’s waiting for me on the other side of the door. I’m excited and speechless. 
I wish you all the very best in 2018. I know it wasn’t an easy year for many people. I think 2018 is going to be much better. As my friend and fellow writer, Marie Anne Beswick wrote, “I’ve been waiting my whole life for 2018.” 
May you know joy, peace and fulfilment throughout the year.

If you’re in the Banderas Bay, Nayarit area Friday, January 5th, come by the VIP Lounge at the Marina Rivera Yacht Club in La Cruz de Huanacaxtle. It’s the annual Meet the Author event from 5 to 7pm. Besides myself, authors Susan Appleyard and Wanda St. Hilaire will be there. I would love to see you. What better way to spend the evening than talking shop.
