IWSG Day: Wednesday, April 2, 2025 ~ Here's to Fighting, Questing, and Drinking!

  

It's the first Wednesday of the month,
the day that members of the
Insecure Writer's Support Group
share their writing struggles
and writing successes
and offer their encouragement
and support to fellow writers.

Our wonderful co-hosts who are volunteering today,
along with IWSG Founder Alex J. Cavanaugh are 

Jennifer Lane, L. Diane Wolfe, Jenni Enzor, and Natalie Aguirre!

Stop by their posts and thank them for hosting.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every month the IWSG announces a question that members can answer
with advice, insight, a personal experience, or a story in their IWSG posts.

Or, the question can inspire members
if they aren't sure what to write about on IWSG Day.

Remember the question is optional.

This month's optional question is: 

What fantasy character would you like to fight, go on a quest with, or have a beer/glass of wine with?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Happy April, Everyone!  

I hope things are going well for each of you.

Interesting question ~ 

But one I didn't have to think about very much!

Galadriel, from The Lord of the Rings, 

has fascinated me throughout my life.

Galadriel was more of a leader and a protector than a warrior, 

although she likely could wield a sword.

I wouldn't want to fight her, I would rather fight for her.

 

I would choose to go on a quest with Galadriel, because of her inner strength and wisdom,

and because she passed the ultimate test of resisting the power of the One Ring.

She fought her own inner darkness and chose honor, integrity, 

and principle over the seduction of supreme power.

It's hard to imagine sitting down with Galadriel and drinking wine,

but if she chose to do so, I would love to share a glass with her.

I'm more of a hobbit than an elf, but she was gracious to the hobbits with Frodo,

so perhaps she'd extend that graciousness to me. 

And since we both love our husbands deeply, 

maybe we could find some common ground to begin our conversation.

 😂 

Wishing each of you a great IWSG Day,

and a big thank you to our awesome co-hosts.

Have a healthy, happy, and creative April!

Take care!

Till next time ~
