It is finally here people. The New Year has finally arrived and even though you get an opportunity to start the year all over again, it is not like last year’s insecurities will just up and leave. I know that for a fact, but, I have decided to keep my enthusiasm and I know for a fact that there is no situation or experience that cannot be overcome with writing. It does not matter if you are a writer or not. Write about how a certain bad experience made you feel and use that as inspiration for another piece of work. No experience is ever wasted.
I am fully determined to take my writing more seriously this year. I am confident enough to call myself a writer, finally. It is a New Year people, a year that will hopefully be filled with a lot less insecurity, at least here’s hoping.

Visiting late from the blog hop! You're very right. This year is a new year with new opportunities and new possibilities. Hopefully we can all write our insecurities away and tackle those resolutions - or at least get a lot of writing done!
