This comes a few days late, but I’m here at last! I am happy to join in for the first time. The enormous talent in this group humbles me and hope I can learn many things along the way.
I am not a novelist, but I do love to write. This the one joy that stays with me when other interests fade. Years ago, I wrote a few of children’s stories. After failed attempts to get my favorite into print the traditional route, I decided to self-publish with no regrets whatsoever. It was a fun experience, but I realized that I don’t have what it takes to write as a career or do I?
I know I need to shake things up in my journeying, if I want to grow as a serious writer. That being said… *swallow hard* I realize I among published authors (please be kind to me), but I hope The Insecure Writer’s Support Group monthly exercise will help me in three areas.
- stretch my lax imagination and unleash those pinned ideas in my mind
- fine tune my limited writing ability
- build confidence and energy as a writer
If nothing more becomes of this experience other than allowing me to continue on the amazing highway of blogging as a better writer and meet new friends, then I am okay with this, but if I should go beyond that…then that would be cool.
The gloves are off, I’m ready to write!
