Welcome readers, writers, authors, and bloggers!
We're glad you're here! It's the First Wednesday of the month;
when we celebrate IWSG Day in the form of a blog hop
featuring members and guests of the Insecure Writer's
Support Group. Founded by
author Alex Cavanaugh (Thank you,
Captain!) and fostered by like-minded associates, IWSG is a comfortable place
to share views and literary news as we record our journeys. Check out our newsletter here.
The awesome
co-hosts for this month’s posting of the IWSG are Shannon
Lawrence, Liza, Pat
Garcia, and me; diedre Knight!
Today’s
entirely optional question: As a writer/author, what is something
you regret? Or something that you wish you’d done differently in your writing
process?
Oh sure. I have regrets. But I keep all
those shoulda-woulda-coulda thoughts that would do me no good to dwell upon now
in a box with a lid, covered with an old red bandana and tucked way in the back
of a drawer I only open every other week or so.
I should have used a pen name. Why didn’t
I pay more attention to illustrations? Why did I change the title
at the last minute? I should have networked more. Much more.
“We crucify ourselves between two thieves:
Regret for yesterday and fear of tomorrow” ~ Fulton Oursler

you know from 1917 till 1919 (WWI) private American citizens were not allowed
