As far as writing alone, I’d encourage you to check out https://stopwritingalone.substack.com . You might be on the other side of the planet but there may be value in our group all the same. And keep writing!
Congrats! How awesome that joining a writing group helped you reset and put pen to paper! It’s been a long time since I’ve been in a really good writing group. They can be so much fun.
So glad that you wrote this and that your writing has become uncorked. You got me so excited I went over, subscribed to Nicole's substack, joined her platform and plan to write live with the group this afternoon (something, I might add, I have been doing on a weekly basis with a group of writers since the pandemic began though I am winding it down to devote more focus on my novel.)
I think writing with others is a scary prospect for many, but, as you found out, it can have tremendous positive impact. I look forward to catching up to your latest novel, but I have a deadline so am trying (not always successfully) to limit my time on other things.
Oh wow, that's so cool! I would join you today but I think I'm going to be watching the Jan 6 hearings. But I'll hopefully catch you next month! Writing prompt parties are so much fun and I always get a story - or at least a good start - out of them. Have fun and say hi to the gang for me!
Wow, thanks so much for the thoughtful comment! It males me so happy to hear that you enjoy my stories.

Congratulations on all you’ve done and are doing, Jackie!
I'm fairly new to writing things that people can read, so I find your story very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
