Time for our monthly meeting of the Insecure Writer's Support Group! Hosted as ever by Alex J. Cavanaugh, the aim of the group is to offer a safe space where writers can share doubts and insecurities without fear of being judged. This month's co-hosts are Jennifer Lane, L Diane Wolfe, Jenni Enzor and Natalie Aguirre.
This month's optional IWSG question looks like a fun one: What fantasy character would you like to fight, go on a quest with, or have a beer/glass of wine with?
I won't go on at length with this one, or this will turn into another Pratchett love fest following last month. But there are a plethora of choices to be had from his canon. Overall, I'd say Captain Carrot would be a solid and stand-up guy to go on a quest or have a drink with. I wouldn't fight him though (described as "two metres tall and bulging with muscles").
With the clocks having gone forward in the UK, things are feeling a lot more springlike, and I'm determined to keep moving on. With my most recently finished book sent to critique partners, I'm getting started on my next project, and this one seems like it might be another genre mashup (a bit of horror mixed with sci-fi I'm thinking). Hopefully, it will be quite different to what I've done before. A limited outline, and we'll see how the rest pans out.
How is spring looking for you (or autumn, for southern hemisphere friends)? I have a goal of finishing returning visits sooner than one day before the next meeting this time. As ever, the circle of IWSP participators can be found here.
