“Purpose: To share and encourage. Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds!

Posting: The first Wednesday of every month is officially Insecure Writer’s Support Group day. Post your thoughts on your own blog. Talk about your doubts and the fears you have conquered. Discuss your struggles and triumphs. Offer a word of encouragement for others who are struggling. Visit others in the group and connect with your fellow writer - aim for a dozen new people each time - and return comments. This group is all about connecting!

Let’s rock the neurotic writing world!

The awesome co-hosts for the February posting of the IWSG are J Lenni Dorner , Victoria Marie Lees , and Sandra Cox!

Every month, we announce a question that members can answer in their IWSG 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

February question - Many writers have written about the experience of rereading their work years later. Have you reread any of your early works? What was that experience like for you?”

Ooh, great question!
I reread my own writing often.
A lot of the time, I get frustrated by how much editing it still seems to need. But lately I've turned a corner, I think -- I can see the work required, but it doesn't make me want to run away!

And if I reread some of my fanfiction, I can reread it all without wanting to go hide in a cave. It's an amazing feeling to have a positive experience with my own stories.

Meanwhile, some online fun!
