The Insecure Writer's Support Group (IWSG) is the brilliant idea of Alex J. Cavanaugh. The purpose of the group is to share doubts and insecurities and to encourage one another. Please visit the other participants and share your support. A kind word goes a long way.
This month's awesome co-hosts are: Tyrean Martinson, Ellen @ The Cynical Sailor, Megan Morgan, Jennifer Lane, and Rachna Chhabria!
We're starting off the year with great news. The IWSG short story contest last year had many amazing entries, and bravo to everyone who submitted a story. But the judges could only choose ten. Congratulations to the winners!

January optional IWSG question: What steps have you taken or plan to take to put a schedule in place for your writing and publishing?
It depends on how you define schedule. I have a loose schedule for what I want to do this year. I don't want to put any more stress on myself than I already do, so I haven't set deadlines for the two novels I want to release in 2018. I will make them the best darn novels they can be, and if that happens later rather than sooner, so be it. I'm trying to be okay with that.

Congratulations to the awesome Chrys Fey on the release of her newest book, Flaming Crimes. In celebration of her release, she's having a fun blogfest which requires participants to answer one question.
What is something ridiculous you would save if there was a fire? (This is after you've saved your family, pets, and other important items.)
I'm including books as important items. It's not ridiculous to save them! As for the silly item, it would be my dice. Yes, I'm such a geek. But there are so many dice that have memories attached to them. And they roll well! It's not easy to find a set of dice that roll well for you.

BLURB: Beth
and Donovan are now happily married, and what Beth wants more than
anything is a baby. Her dream of starting a family is put on hold as
fires burn dangerously close and Donovan becomes a victim of
sabotage.
Donovan
escapes what could've been a deadly wreck. Their past enemies have
been eliminated, so who is cutting brake lines and leaving bloody
messages? He vows to find out, for the sake of the woman he loves and
the life they're trying to build.
Amidst
a criminal mind game, a fire ignites next to their home. They battle
the flames and fight to keep their house safe from the blaze pressing
in on all sides, but neither of them expects to confront a psychotic
adversary in the middle of the inferno.
Their
lives may just go up in flames…
