Welcome to the monthly post for The Insecure Writer’s Support Group (IWSG). We’re a group of writers who linger too near our keyboards all of the time but especially the first Wednesday of the month. Join us. My awesome co-hosts for the May 6 posting of the IWSG are Jenni Enzor, Jemima Pett, Jamie of Uniquely Maladjusted but Fun!
The optional question this month is: What was the most inspiring feedback you received from readers, including agents, editors, and beta readers?
The absolute best feedback I’ve ever received was from a beta read of my current book. Handwritten in the pages of my climax was the word BITCH (she meant me), and a page or two later when the outcome of the scene was clear, the same reader had a sad face and the word heartbroken scrawled in large text. The scene had 100% done it’s job. Now, time for some news.
Chonkers is my news tidbit this month. I heart Chonkers.
In science news, quantum position verification is destined for a high-tech facility near you. I continue to be amazed by quantum mechanics and now it shows that you can know if “the call is coming from inside the house.” Did I just date myself?

I leave you with a song. Enjoy and I’ll see you next month.

Those are some wild comments! I need to go back to those from my third book as they were encouraging and hilarious.
Thanks for co-hosting!
I laughed out loud when I read her comments. It may have even been a cackle.
Love the sea lion clip. So life-affirming in the sea of negative news today. Thanks for sharing.
