A new year - a new decade - and what better way to see it in than with the first Insecure Writer's Support Group post of 2020? Hosted as ever by Ninja Cap'n Alex J. Cavanaugh, the role of the group continues to be to offer a safe space where writers of all kinds can share their fears and insecurities without fear of judgement. January's co-hosts are T. Powell Coltrin, Victoria Marie Lees, Stephen Tremp and J. H. Moncrieff!
If you don't mind, I'm going to use this as my "looking ahead to the new year" post - always a time of some insecurity but an exciting one too. I've started off on a good foot by typing "The End" on the last book in my trilogy. This one still needs a lot of work done to it, but for now I'm happy to reach that milestone. I'll be working towards a publication in spring or summer while at the same time, I'll be working on something new - it's been too long!
Another great way of starting the year would be bagging yourself an agent or publisher, and that might just come to fruition with the next #IWSGPit Twitter Pitch event. Simply ready your tweet-length pitch and get ready to post on January 15. Only a week away! Check out more details here. And of course, you can find more IWSG posts here.
How's your 2020 looking? What are your hopes and insecurities?

It's so nice to type those two words. Now the fun begins. I love editing and polshing way more than the acutal writing!
Well done, Nick! And good luck going forward! :)

Congratulations on finishing your trilogy! It's always exhausting and exhilarating to reach the end of a series, superlong book, or trilogy.

Working on a new project in a new year sounds like one great plan to me! Go, Nick.
Congrats on finishing the trilogy! Exciting to look ahead to starting something new, too :) I used this IWSG to look back, and now you remind me I need a goal-setting look-ahead post.
Congratulations Nick!
Wow, Nick! Congratulations on typing The End yet again! Bravo! Looking forward to seeing all you do this year.
I would love to publish another book this year. My freelance business is taking off (slowly). Best wishes on the twitter pitch. Some day I will try that.
