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 monthly
newsletter here.
The awesome co-hosts for this month’s posting of the IWSG are: Beth Camp, Crystal Collier, and Cathrina Constantine!
Today’s
entirely optional question: What is the most favorite thing you have written, published or not?
And why?
Great question! And an easy one as well, since one book in particular has been on my mind like a jumping bean; “Me! Pick me!” and in my heart with love everlasting for the little guy for and about whom it was written. The little guy is eighteen now, and while he’s still as curious as he was at two, his Nana doesn’t share every new discovery ;-)
I love
everything I’ve written. Not for the purpose of selling them, though some
actually have. Sold, that is. I’ve given away more poems than I can count. I
dearly love the act of writing. From start to eventual finish, it’s being on my own adventure where all my favorite characters are invited to accompany me. Writing Beanie’s Backyard was my way of chronologically savoring
adventures that I was fortunate to accompany him on ;-)
I’m
looking forward to your thoughts on favorites.
Happy
Writing!
Eighteen years ago? Wow. Although I just now realized it was fifteen years ago for my first. What happened?
ReplyDeleteAmazing, huh? Writing is the easiest way for me to lose track of time... I happen to know you've been especially busy ;-)
DeleteBeanie's Backyard looks like a cute story. I can see why this baby could be your favorite.
ReplyDeleteHappy October, Natalie! The little book is very much a part of me ;-)
DeleteThat book had to be written with lots of love. No wonder it's your favorite! https://cleemckenziebooks.substack.com/
ReplyDeleteHi, Lee!
DeleteYou know it ;-) Happy October!
Congrats on Beanie's Backyard becoming 18 years old!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lidy! Happy October!
DeleteI can't say I love everything I've written. Some of it isn't worth reading!
ReplyDeleteAw, I bet that's not the case, PJ ;-) Even if we don't share, it feels good to get our words recorded; journals, doc files, manuscripts - even handy napkins!
