Insecure Writer’s Support Group—A database resource site and support group for writers and authors. Featuring weekly guests and tips, a monthly blogfest gathering, a Facebook group, a book club, and thousands of links–all to benefit writers! #IWSG
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 help and guidance. It’s a safe-haven for insecure writers of all kinds!
Posting: The first Wednesday of every month is officially Insecure Writer’s Support Group day. Post your thoughts on your own blog. Talk about your doubts and the fears you have conquered. Discuss your struggles and triumphs. Offer a word of encouragement for others who are struggling. Visit others in the group and connect with your fellow writer—aim for a dozen new people each time—and return comments. This group is all about connecting!
Be sure to link to this page and display the badge in your post. And please be sure your avatar links back to your blog!
Our Twitter handle is @TheIWSG and hashtag is #IWSG.
The group has a new feature: In-Person Writing Groups!

So here's my response to both this month's and last month's questions. Indoor plumbing is very important to my ideal book world. https://www.theresahuppauthor.com/blog/2022/07/06/insecure-writers-support-group-plowing-in-plodding-along-and-indoor-plumbingworld/
Looks like a great endeavour. Thanks for sharing, Elizabeth.
