After dragging my feet for more than a month and half, I have actively joined a writer's group. I know?! I can hardly believe it myself. My initial trepidation was the thought of actually having strangers read my work and then have them share their thoughts on it. That's always been the most difficult thing about writing -- giving it over to someone else. **shudders**
But thanks to the persistence of a few awesome people, I went to my first writer's group today. Gotta say, it was kinda cool. I was a little nervous but quickly got over it. As I sat and listened I became comfortable enough to share some thoughts of my own, we did a group reading of someone's script. That was very cool.
What I took away from the group session was that I seriously need to rework my piece, first of all, but feel comfortable to want to share my writings with others. That seems a little strange seeing as how I have a blog and it's open for others to view. Be that as it may, I am excited and eager to start working on my writing again. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
