ISWG April 5 Blog Hop: What are Your Goals?

Happy Wednesday! The Insecure Writers’ Group is a group of writers offering motivation and encouragement to all those taking on the challenges of writing. Every month the ISWG sponsors a blog hop where writers can blog about a topic related to overcoming obstacles and exploring various aspects of the writing journey. If you’d like to participate in a future hop you can join here. It’s always a great experience, and I recommend it to anyone who is interested in writing and sharing with other writers. Every month there is an optional discussion question, and this month the question is the following:

April 5 question – Do you remember writing your first book? What were your thoughts about a career path on writing? Where are you now and how is it working out for you? If you’re at the start of the journey, what are your goals?

I’m still currently in the process of writing my first book, so I can’t yet speak to the first part of the question. But for the second part, the answer would be that it’s going well! I took a detour for a while (a really long while) when I struggled to sit down and concentrate long enough to write anything down, let alone anything resembling a book. But lately it’s been easier, and I’m finding more time to continue working on it. As far as my goals? I would love to write something that people can connect with and enjoy. The writing process in and of itself is therapeutic for me, but it would be an added bonus if others enjoyed reading it too! I’ve always enjoyed writing about Underdog types of characters, pulling in many of the anxieties I myself have felt and still feel. If someone could connect with that and feel less alone, that would be the best 🙂

What are your writing goals? Hoping that you are having fun and enjoying the process of working towards and achieving your own goals ♥️
