Welcome to our eighth 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 Writing May Create Conflict
I admit that I occasionally write things people don't like, such as a poem, a short story, or an essay, which causes friction. I receive snubs from people I thought understood me. I've learned to accept that people will not agree with everything I write, and I don't try to justify myself anymore.
They have a right to their opinions, and you know what? I've learned I have a right to mine, so I keep what I write. I stand by it and keep going.
Have a lovely August, and be safe.
Shalom shalom
