Jul TCWT Blog Chain

Hello readers,

This month's prompt is: “Take any character from one of your books and put them in a therapy session. Write a (short!) scene about what happens. (You can include multiple characters and make it a group therapy session.)”


I'm taking my MC, Fayha, from WOULD YOU BELIEVE. 

Therapist: What has been going on?
Fayha: My long time friend is leaving her faith and another friend is bullying me.
T: How is this friend bullying you?
F: She tells me I shouldn't wear certain things or can't believe I believe such things or would do such things. 
T: How does that make you feel?
F: sad, mad, useless. 

I hope you enjoyed that and you are interested in reading the story. I might do this two those two friends of hers to help my story. Thank you, TCWT for the inspiring prompt. 

Btw, I've been interviewed on Saba's blog and Tina's blog about my writing journey and poetry campaign. Check it out!

Hearing About IWSG

Hello readers, I was reading Ali's post about this support group that talks about writerly doubts. I have doubts and I shall share them because that's the point of a support group. I used to be insecure about traditional publishing, that no one with accept my writing. Then I heard of self publishing. Yet that added to my insecurities. I have no money or talent to showcase my writing. After IndieReCon I felt a better, yet once the high went away, I find it's only a little bit better. I need a team, I need help. I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter. The only reason I stay is for the knowledge. And the worse insecurity, dare I say it. All the above add to me... wanting to quit writing. I have little motivation and that motivation is to show my Muslim community you don't have to be a doctor or lawyer or teacher to be...
