November 2017 Insecure Writers Support Group Post


*******


NOSEY: Greetings, cybernuts! This is I.B. Nosey, your official unofficial reporter coming to you this November to announce - Yes, once again! - it's time for another Insecure Writer Support meeting. *looks around* Everyone, sit in your seat and grab a Gum Drop Island chocolate bar while we hip, hop, boogey 'roung the blogs to 'be nosy' and see what everyone else has to say. Heh heh.

Now, as a reminder the purpose of ISWG is:

Purpose: To share and encourage. Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds!

And so, November's question is:                                           

Win or not, do you usually finish your NaNo project? Have any of them gone on to be published?

MM: *calls off stage* Nosey, are you asking me?

NOSEY: Uhhh, only if I've gotta.

MM: Well, have you written a NaNo project?

NOSEY: Um...now that you mention it--

MM: Of course you haven't. So I'll take it from here. *grabs Nosey's microphone*


MM: Greetings, my fellow Nosey fans. As that famous official unofficial reporter announced, this month's official unofficial ISWG question is posed: Win or not, do you usually finish your NaNo project? Have any of them gone on to be published?

MM: My answer? I signed up for NaNo once and it took about 24 hours for me to discover that my creativity was frustrated by a "have to" attitude, as in "have to" finish by set deadline. So no, I did not finish and that particular project was finished outside of NaNo.

NOSEY: *gasps* What? You didn't finish? My creator quit? You quit a project?

MM: *waves hand* Pfft. I had to, Nosey, so that I could daydream and conceive the likes of you.

NOSEY: Yeah? *puffs out chest* Well, in that case you've given cyberspace the ultimate prize, heh heh.

MM: I thought you'd see it that way. *turns to address audience* Everyone, the blog is active so keep on clicking.

NOSEY: Gimme that. *snatches microphone away from MM* Just because I'm a prize don't mean you can steal my Feeling Nosey? spotlight. *clears throat* Until next month, this is Pukelitzer Prize award winning I.B. Nosey signing off!
