Aug IWSG

Hello readers,

Today I'm insecure. My crowdfunding was a fail. I'm glad I have a backup plan, I hope it works. Today I'm insecure. I have barely done any writing or editing for almost more than a month.

But today I'm secure. I baked cookies. I finished a blessed month and hope the hype continues afterward so that I can stay good and blessed. 

Love,

The writing will return when it's ready, I truly believe that xx Baking cookies is always a good thing :) Don't eat too many though as that'll also make you feel bad.

Sorry to hear it wasn't the best month, but baking some nice cookies always perks me up!

Hope this next month is better!

I completely sympathize. I've had a bad month in terms of writing too. Just hang in there. It'll get better. Baking cookies helps me too. :)

I was feeling the same way a couple weeks back. Just know the pendulum will swing the other way and things will be looking up again soon.

Thank you for your kind comments on my blog and I hope things are getting better for you :)

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...

What's up Wed: Blog Tour Day 3

Hello readers, What I'm Reading CROWN OF MIDNIGHT! The first book was already great but this second book kicked it up a notch with the OMG! moments. What I'm Writing : I'm keeping on with NaNoWriMo at 28k! In between I'm switching back and forth between two stories: Reading Deciding Hijab after a long break.

The other story is one I have a sneak peak on Wattpad . What Else : It's day three of belated Hugs & Kisses blog tour. Earlier this month Medeia reviewed my book . If you have read it or is planning to read it I would love to see your review on goodreads ! Poetry Prompt : Write about the feeling reading gives you. a Rafflecopter giveaway Love, Fida # Poetteers
