I love...Yay! You finally joined the IWSG! Welcome!<br /><br />I love your post, Sheri. It is full of great advice, especially about defining our writer self. I think I still need to work on that one, and I wonder if maybe I'm sharing too much personal and not enough writer. I'll have to think about that. <br /><br />I got a good chuckle from your comment on my blog. So glad you found time to write your contribution for the anthology in between soccer, ice hockey, dinner, and laundry! LOL. Yep, I know how that goes (except for the ice hockey part). :) Kristin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15119967346326579747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-52932697362303681102014-10-02T02:27:39.820-04:002014-10-02T02:27:39.820-04:00You know, someone else I follow also mentioned the...You know, someone else I follow also mentioned the IWSG!
