... a part of me is relieved that I cannot attend the meeting as I would be incredibly anxious to read my work aloud in front of a lot of people. Are there writers out there who struggle with confidence when faced with opportunities such as this? Surely I'm not the only one! 2/2

I've been a prose reader for @sepiaorg since July of last year. I'd highly recommend joining the team as it's such a rewarding, enjoyable experience with the best staff members / mentors! 💙 #writingcommmunity #poetrycommunity #writerslife #writers #readingcommunity #readers

Wow, a TRIPLE poetry acceptance from @wilderlit this morning! What a great way to start a Friday 💙 #goodmorning #HappyFriday #WritingCommunity #poetrycommunity

I bought a book from a charity shop today. I've just got home and opened it up to find a squashed spider inside 😯 Got to love buying second hand books! 💙 #WritingCommunity #writerslife #books #BookTwitter #booklovers

I didn't feel like sending out work tonight so I just sent off one. A little over an hour later I got this response. Needless to say my motivation has increased considerably! Always keep going, even when you don't feel like it 💜 #WritingCommunity #writerslife #SaturdayThoughts
