Mon Blessings #16: Begin of Jul

Hello readers,

I'm blessed that Ramadan starts tomorrow!!! And I just came back from a Muslim youth camp!! I'm on a faith boost!

Reflecting on yourself and having confidence were the two big things taken away from camp. Of course, the fast-paced made sisterhood! 

I've written so many poems, but you're going to have to wait a bit because they are under consideration for the camp's upcoming issue. 

My goals are to lessen my time on the Internet. I made a goal to go on only on the weekends. I want to read/understand the Quran and better my prayers. I want to do little things like exercise and watch the sunrise and help my mom. 

Love, Fida

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...
