HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!
Welcome to our first IWSG Day of the year, 2023.
IWSG is a writers' support group created and led by Alex Cavanaugh.
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!
This group is an immense help to many of us who do not mind sharing our insecurities and successes or giving others encouragement and support.
So, if you are interested and would like to join, the link below will lead you directly to us.

MY WORD FOR 2023
My word for this year is Consistency.
There are writing classes that I've signed up for, stories that I want to write, and music that I want to compose, and all these areas call for consistency.
Having set a standard for myself, I don't want to become lazy, uncaring, or lose the fire within me. I want to conceive and pour out the best work within me consistently.
I wish all of you the best year ever.
Take care and be safe.
Shalom aleichem
