0 Writing Wisdom (An IWSG Post)

The Insecure Writer's Support Group is the brainchild of uber blogger and author Alex J. Cavanaugh and is an opportunity for insecure writers everywhere (not that any of us are ever insecure, right?) a safe environment in which to confess their deepest fears or offer encouragement to others, or some combination of the two.

As I'm still languishing in the land of the endless edits, I'm going to cheat a little on today's post and just share with you some of my favorite, most inspirational writing quotes and other...things (I couldn't resist including a little Nick Miller). I assume you'll forgive me because I assume you've all been there at one point or another as editing is one of those necessary joys and/or evils (depending on your personal feelings on the subject).

First up is my idol (and yours... don't try to deny it) Joss 'The Boss' Whedon...

"I write to give myself strength. I write to be the characters that I am not. I write to explore all the things I'm afraid of."

"Write it. Shoot it. Publish it. Crochet it, sauté it, whatever. MAKE."

And now for some others...

And finally, because I am obsessed with Nick Miller the Writer (from the show "New Girl")...




Happy Writing, all!
