It's the first Wednesday of the month, which means it's the posting day for the Insecure Writer's Support Group! Click here to learn more and sign up!
Hey! Long time no see! Probably because I forgot to post last month. In my defense, it was only a few days after I had just moved into my new apartment and I had a lot going on. I'm loving the new space and it's so much quieter than my old apartment, but I do still have quite a lot of crap lying around that I have to organize and find a home for, so I haven't exactly set up my dream writing space. But hey, baby steps!
I think I've used this gif before...
Anyhoo, this month's optional question for the IWSG is: Is there a genre you haven't tried writing in yet that you really want to try? If so, do you plan on trying it?
I think I would like to write something in the horror genre at some point. I really enjoy horror movies, so it seems like something I would enjoy writing as well. I haven't really read all that much horror, however, probably because my love of horror movies came later in life (and I've also been in a reading slump for a few years), but I'm definitely interested in exploring the genre with reading and writing.
I've had a couple horror story ideas floating around in my head but they're not that fleshed out. They may be better as short stories than novels, but I've never felt like I'm very good at writing short stories. I think if I read more horror books then maybe I'll find some inspiration and explore some new ideas or figure out the existing ones.
In other news, hubby and I will be going to NYC in two weeks for a couple of nights. We're seeing a musical one night and hubby booked a comedy show for another, but other than that I think we're just gonna wing the trip. I like the idea of just going with the flow. I do know I want to go back to Max Brenner to get the best chocolate martini I've ever had again...no, seriously, I've been dreaming about it for two and a half years...
