Writing Community

So… My short story will be live tomorrow for all to read. Super nervous! Wondering how it will be received by readers. But this post isn’t about that really. Well, it is and it isn’t.

First it’s wonderful to be part of a community and I wouldn’t have my story in this anthology at all if it weren’t for a writer friend. I wouldn’t have pushed through to the end. I haven’t always written like I should( daily habit). I’ve jotted down snippets but never truly finished a story and having community has made all the difference.

I totally botched my first author bio, but that is okay. A writer friend gave me suggestions to improve upon it and it’s exactly what I’ll do.

I value all of those writers out there published or unpublished who’ve helped me, cheered me on, and generally had belief in me.

So here’s a shout out to all you awesome people who also happen to write. THANK YOU for being the community I wanted and need.
