The Insecure Writer's Support Group
Join us on the first Wednesday of each month in Alex J. Cavanaugh's Insecure Writer's Support Group--a forum of writers who gather to talk about writing and the writer's life. For a complete list of participants visit Alex's Blog.
The co-hosts for the June 5 posting of the IWSG are Liza at Middle Passages, Shannon Lawrence, Melissa Maygrove, and Olga Godim.
June 5 question - In this constantly evolving industry, what kind of offering/service do you think the IWSG should consider offering to members?
Ask me a question like that and my mind can go wild. In my earlier days of blogging when I was first getting excited about Blogging from A to Z, I would think up all sorts of ideas for expanding the community and providing more features and services. I still think about ideas that might work for A to Z and they are the same kinds of things that would work for the IWSG community. And maybe--probably--the features are available and I just haven't explored enough to know. I'm good with coming up with ideas, but rarely know how to make them work or have the drive to pursue them.
So sure, ask me about this and I could go on ad infinitum without having a clue how to implement my great ideas. These days my excitement about blogging, writing, or other creativity are more on hold than any real activity on those fronts. Ask me in a couple of months and maybe my attitude will be different. For now I'm drifting along. And that's okay because that's where I am these days. I'm content and drifting along.
A spark of excitement is enticing me onward and I'll know when I'm there. I guess.
