Insecure Writers Support Group


Alex has this cool, monthly post called The Insecure Writer’s Support Group.

I love this idea–and not just for writers, either–for everyone. I mean, who couldn’t use an encouraging word, pat on the back, or hug (even cyber hugs).

As an author/writer I often worry about things such as who likes my book, who doesn’t, why don’t they–but then I mentally slap myself and remember very key advice I’ve received on this journey:

“You can’t please everyone. Not everyone will like you or your writing style.”

It’s so true. I know I don’t like every single book I pick up to read. It’s not a knock against the writer as a person, it just wasn’t my type of book. So, I say, whether you’re a writer or not,

“Keep on doing what you’re doing.”

Have a super day, everyone!
