2019 is moving faster than 2018. I just blinked and we
are already in the second month of the year. But for a change I can pat myself
on my back. This year it looks like I will meet many of my writing targets.
This shows what a little extra discipline and dedication can do, and ofcourse
switching off from online distractions goes a long way and staying focused and
being on a deadline.
I digress as usual. This post is about IWSG (Insecure Writers
Support Group) not about my goals. IWSG is an online forum where writers from
all over the world participate by posting on the first Wednesday of the month.
In our posts we tackle any of our writing insecurities, discuss our fears,
learn from other writers who have overcome these doubts and anxieties.
IWSG is the brainchild of Ninja Captain Alex Cavanaugh. Alex is an accomplished musician, an awesome blogger and a best-selling
author. He is the author of the Amazon Bestsellers: CassaStar, CassaStorm,
CassaFire and Dragon of the Stars. The IWSG has to its credit, writing contests,
twitter pitch parties, it has brought out several anthologies. The IWSG website
has amazing and informative posts from publishing experts.

question - Besides writing what other creative outlets do you have?
Besides writing I don’t do anything else
creative. At one time (a million years back) I did a little bit of embroidery.
A few years back I taught creative writing in college for several years. But
that’s about it. I write, write and write. I have been thinking of doing
something else creative, but haven’t found anything (not that I have been actively looking).
Will be visiting all your blogs later to see what
other creative outlets you all have.
