IWSG: My 200th Post!

It's the first Wednesday of the month! Happy Insecure Writers Support Group Day! And Happy Lent! lol Be sure to stop by as many of the hundreds of group members in the link embedded two sentences ago. ;)

Today marks my 200th blog post in The Writer Ambitious! That's a feat. I didn't think I'd still be trying to blog 2 years later. I went to see what some of my old posts were. My very first, I was sending a not-ready manuscript out to a publisher(ouch). I might actually try again, now that I have two years behind me and a better take on reality. My second was about the tribute sequel I just talked about, Ruby, which is kind of cool that two years later, I'm leaning towards making it my first publication instead of my fantasy WIP I've slaved over for more than those two years. Honestly, though, Ruby also came to me so much more easily. Interesting.

With that said, for today, I advise everyone to take a look back, laugh, cry (lol), and then move forward. :) Have a good day!

Congrats on keeping up your blog! I've seen a lot of blogs die out at the two year mark.

Congratulations on two hundred posts! Your first post sounds a lot less lame than my first post.
