Description
I have a writer at home.

Not many people know this, but my husband's writing takes a lot of work--from both of us. If you're a lucky writer, you have a partner that's backing you up; shoving crackers in your mouth when you forget to eat, reminding you that it's okay to have a social life sometimes, and listening patiently to all the things those imaginary people are doing in your head.

I won't lie, sometimes it's really hard to support a writer. It's tough, when I've had a difficult day and just want to sob on hubby's shoulder, to detach and let him get on with his work. It's difficult to get passionate about his characters when I don't know them as well as he does. Sometimes I have no clue what he's talking about, but I still try, because I know he has a gift. Does that make it easier? No. But it does make it worth it.

Do you identify with this spiel? That's exactly what I've created this group for. Write Support's goal is to nurture you so that you can nurture your writer. All it needs is members. If this group sounds like it could be helpful to you or to someone close to you, please consider joining.

Happy writing.

Uses $zilla774 's lovely stamp template, as well as ~Spifflicated 's stock: [link] I forgot to do the drop shadow effect on the second bit of text and didn't realize it before I'd already saved both web versions. If it bothers enough people, I'll change it, but imo it looks okay like this.
