And now for my IWSG post -
WARNING: BEING A WRITER IS TREACHEROUS!
If you want to be a writer, prepare yourself for disappointment, heartache, and rejection. You must have thick skin to take the criticism and low ratings of others. It requires steadfastness and perseverance. You must accept working long hours for no pay. Frustration is also a big part of writing.
And in this day and age, CHANGE is the only CONSTANT.
If you still want to be a writer, if your heart and passion won't be swayed, the public thanks you. Writers provide everyone with an escape from everyday lives. Writing is the basis of knowledge: from the foundations of history to the promises of the future in our world and beyond. There would be no movies, television shows, or books without writers. Writers inspire, educate, and encourage the rest of the world to do great things and be greater people.
Thank you for being a writer. When life gets you down, keep writing. Despite all the negatives, it truly is worth it!
I'm trying to look at the bright side and figure out how to move on now that my publisher is officially closed. I can't order any of my books and no one is responding, not even our distributor. It's been a very tough several months. Luckily I have the cover and the formatted copies, so I am going through with self-publishing WINDY HOLLOW, but it won't be until this summer... I still have to make some tweaks and time is not on my side.
Thanks for your support you guys! Hope things are well with you!

Yeh for writers!
Hang in there, Tara. Things will work themselves out.
I'm sorry they've closed. I hope you get all your rights back soon.
Thank you for mentioning the new IWSG anthology.
Oh gosh, 'Change is the only constant.' Amen to that! This piece is very timely for me. My writing life just suffered a severe blow, and I'm trying to regain my footing.
And YAY! for the IWSG anthology!
We are needed!
Terrible your publisher is closing. I hope the third book does come out one way or another.
This business is not for people who don't like to climb mountains. That's for sure. Sorry about the publisher closing. That seems to happen a lot these days.
I'm so sorry, Tara. It must be so frustrating to be going through all that and to not to be able to get ahold of anyone. If I can help at all with WINDY HOLLOW, don't hesitate to ask!
Sorry to hear about your publisher! I hope things sort themselves out without too much delay and anguish.
I'm sorry about your publisher closing. Hope everything goes smoothly with self-publishing.
So sorry to hear about your publisher. You'll do better on your own. You're like CEO material!
I'm so sorry. I wish you all the luck moving forward. You got this, and THANK YOU for being a writer. <3
A agree about the constancy of change. Sorry about your publisher, but it sounds like you have a plan!
I'm sorry your publisher is officially closed. I hope all goes well with your self-pub!
And, go writers!!!
I'm thinking about you. I've had three publishers close their doors when I was under contract and another that 'changed their focus' and ended the line I was writing for. It's frustrating and more than once I felt like throwing in the towel. Keep at it. Another path will open.
I'm so sorry to hear about your publisher. That's devastating! Hang in there. Maybe they're scrambling to get organized. (That was the Pollyanna in me coming out.) It's hard to move on but necessary when you can't do anything about the situation. Good luck!
Oh my, I hope you get your rights back soon. Wishing you the best. Happy IWSG.
I'm very sorry your publisher closed their doors. That's another tough time for writers, along with everything else.
Sad to hear that CQ closed their doors. Hopefully you'll get things all sorted out and move on more smoothly. And you're right: the world needs writers! Books have gotten me to nearly 50. I think that's quite an accomplishment! :D
