It's the first Wednesday of the month and time for another Insecure Writer's Support Group post. A big shout out to our fearless leader, Alex J. Cavanaugh, for starting this amazing group where writers can connect with one another. If you're an insecure writer or a writer interested in supporting others, check us out here!
Today each IWSG member has been asked to write a little introduction before their post, so keeping that in mind, my name is S. L. Hennessy and I'm an insecure writer. I double majored in English Lit and History in college, and reading is my absolute favorite activity. I've completed my first novel, a middle grade piece about superheroes, and I have an agent representing me. As of yet, I have no publisher, but fingers crossed.
As for my insecurities this month, well, they are legion. But it's the dawn of a new year, and the perfect time for fresh starts. I encourage everyone who struggle with writing last year (as I certainly did) to brush off their past troubles and dive in with a newfound sense of determination. That's my goal for 2015!
Happy blogging fellow IWSG-ers, and a happy new year! Can't wait to check in with everyone and read some of your introductions.
Have a great year.
ReplyDeleteSo awesome you have an agent. Just keep believing a contract will follow!
ReplyDeleteSounds like your year is going to be a good one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the invite! Happy to be among fellow insecure writers...:)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've already got the right attitude!
ReplyDeleteHave a great year, SL!
ReplyDeleteAn agent-great! You will get a publisher-have faith!
ReplyDeleteI do brush off the past regularly and fresh start is on the horizon. It's all good, writing, living, all of it.

Happy new year and here's to renewed writing :) x
ReplyDeleteGreat goal and I am attempting to do the same myself, among other things :)
ReplyDeleteExciting about the agent and your manuscript! Best wishes. I like your new page approach. I try to start the year similarly. I was in real funk toward the end of 2014, so it's time to recharge.
