What's up Wednesday

Hello Poetteers,

What I'm Writing:


The first two weeks of feb I wrote everyday like I wanted to. The third week I wrote just three days. We're on the fourth week, I hope to redeem myself with lots of writing. I did write several poems for my WIP these past couple of days.

If you didn't see on twitter or Monday I found a book to be a comp for my WIP, so I'm really re-inspired.

What I'm Reading:


The fourth book I read this year and the one I refer to above is THE PROBABILITY OF LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT by Jennifer E. Smith:

It's a short, fun read. I really loved it. It's fun seeing the common things the two have and the differences they hide. It's just fun seeing how the puzzle pieces of seeing each other fit. I'd give it 4.5 stars.

My next two reads with be DRAGON SEER by Heather McCorkle & ELEVATED by Elana Johnson.


The books I want to read are all on my TBR list but the tops ones are this month's releases, especially MAYBE ONE DAY and BRIGHT BEFORE SUNRISE.


Love and thank you, Fida

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is a favorite of mine. I just read This Is What Happy Looks Like with my bestie. And I can't WAIT for her new book to come out in April. Already preordered it.

YAY WRITING!

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...
