#IWSG - July - It's only 'mostly' hot outside.

It’s time for another group posting of the Insecure Writer’s Support Group! Time to release our fears to the world – or offer encouragement to those who are feeling neurotic.

If you’d like to join us, click on the tab above and sign up. We post the first Wednesday of every month.

The awesome co-hosts for the July 3 posting of the IWSG are Nicki Elson, Juneta Key, Tamara Narayan, and Patricia Lynne!

Today’s optional question - What are your ultimate writing goals, and how have they changed over time (if at all)?



Hello my blog peeps.
We're experiencing a slight heat wave here in New York, but I know there are some places that are hot like this all the time. We need some humor to get us through!!










#IWSGPit
Over a thousand agents and publishers have been invited to watch the feed on July 19, 2018 for #IWSGPit!





So get those pitches ready. Over five thousand tweets last January and we were a trending topic – plus several authors have now found homes for their books. Don’t miss out! Details at the IWSG site.

  9. I'm in Jersey, and I'm feeling it. When we walked out of the house yesterday at noon, it was like walking into an oven! 100+ real-feel. I'll take frostbite AC over scorching summer heat any day. Unless I'm at the pool...

    1. Yeah. The cars are so hot we don't want to get in them!

  10. Ugh, yes. This heatwave can go now. The thing with NYC is, it's hot, humid, muggy and then there's a layer of extra heat because of the concrete. And the subway is an oven.

  11. LOL those made me laugh. I currently have a cold and all I want is to turn off the AC for a while and breathe some fresh air but I can't because I'll DIE.

  12. After a freezing Midwestern winter, the overwhelming heat is almost a relief. I just like being able to walk around without several layers of clothes, especially because the freezing cold will be back soon enough.

  15. It is really hot. I love summer but I don't like when it's so hot I can't open the windows at night. Thanks for the giggles.

  16. Those meme's... yup, that about sums it up. I don't remember it ever being this humid, this stiffing hot. As if there isn't enough air outside.

  18. Sounds extremely hot, Heather.
    Global warming is a reality... the temperature in the polar regions are higher than they've ever been.

  19. Heat wave here in Chicago, too - UGH! Thanks for the funny memes to take some of the "heat" off.

  20. Yep been brutally hot here too but thankfully cooling down as the week goes on.

  21. "It's so hot outside two hobbits just threw a ring in my backyard." Cracked up. Literally LOL. It's hot here in Virginia too, although you'd think we'd be used to it. Still, I'm usually a fan of summer, but I'm ready for autumn. Or maybe just pumpkin spice. Who knows? :)
