Writing is indeed a lonely job and also one that everyone thinks they can do. "Oh yeah sure, I might write a book one day..." and yeah, I might one day become a brain surgeon 'cos it's *that* easy. But, thankfully, I have a group of writer buddies who see me through the dark times, provide motivation and inspiration when I need it, feedback and proof reading services on tap and an open ear if I want to rant. And, of course, I return the favour. We also have mini writiong retreats where we hide away for a weekend in a pretty cottage and barely speak to each other while we tap furiously on our laptops. But it's nice to know there are others in the same room battling with their prose like you are. Here's to having writer buddies - cheers! I’ll drink to that!
