This Is Me--2024 A to Z Theme

My A to Z Themes in the past have covered a range of topics and for 2024 the theme is a personal retrospective that I call "I Coulda Been" which is in reference to my job and career arc over my lifetime. I'll be looking at all sorts of occupations that I have done or could have done. Maybe you've done some of these too!

No Turning Back ( #IWSG )

One of my ultimate dreams would be to take a time machine back to the past.  Not to change anything, but just to look around and experience what was.  In fact, one better not change anything or it could be bad news for us all.  Besides you couldn't do it. Not any of it I guess...



 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 February 5 posting of the IWSG are Joylene Nowell Butler, Louise Barbour, and Tyrean Martinson.




February 5 question - Is there a story or book you've written you want to/wish you could go back and change?

      I haven't published anything I've written so for now I can go back all I want to change things in those stories.  Doesn't really matter I don't think.  To me it matters once it is published.  Once it's out there (assuming there have been no errors in the published copy), then it's out there to stay as it is.

     But that's just me.  And it's not something I really think about.  Not yet at least.  That could always change. 

      Hey, how about stopping by to vote on my current Battle of the Bands?  Take a break with some relaxing dreamy music.

    There's nothing I really want to go back and change either.

    I don't rework anything I've published, either, even if I find mistakes.

    I'm never satisfied. The hardest part is knowing when to stop. Happy IWSG Day, Arlee!

    Your blog posts are published but I'm sure you don't want to change those.
