Welcome to our eleventh IWSG Day of the year 2024.
IWSG is a writers' support group created and led by Alex J. Cavanaugh.
At IWSG, we believe in the power of sharing and encouragement. Writers of all levels and genres can express their doubts and concerns without fear of judgment. Our community is a haven for all insecure writers!
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're a writer seeking a supportive community, IWSG is the place for you. Join us and experience the benefits of sharing your journey with like-minded individuals. The link below will lead you directly to us.

The awesome co-hosts for the November 6 posting of the IWSG are Diedre Knight, Lisa Buie Collard, Kim Lajevardi, and JQ Rose!
STEPPING OUT OF WRITING INTO OTHER CREATIVE ACTIVITIES
Whenever I get the opportunity, I sing in concert with a pianist or accompany a jazz band. However, the things I need to do to be a good writer dominate my life and will continue until June 2025.
I still sing but don't sing as often as I would like.
Besides minimizing the number of public appearances, I knit, and up until last week, I met with my little old ladies who taught me how to knit once a week. I had to stop meeting with them until I have learned how to set up and implement my marketing plan.
And I am taking a couple of Masters's Courses in Writing that are testing me. Sometimes, it seems too much, but when I see the tiny rays of progress I am making, I realize it is worth it, and I smile. 😊
Lastly, I get enormous joy when I take the time to sleep. I take naps during the day. Sometimes one and sometimes two. Both are between thirty and sixty minutes long. During the night, I sleep anywhere from six to seven hours. When I sleep, my brain relaxes, and I dream. I wake up the majority of the time and write them down. Thus, sleeping invigorates my brain and stimulates my sense of humor.
Take care, everyone, and have a lovely Thanksgiving.
Shalom shalom
