The Weekend Writing Showcase is open!

TGIF, YeahWriters! Another week has passed us by, and as I’m currently on the job hunt after moving across the country, this week has me thinking about one thing and one thing only: doubt. Looking for a job (well, getting turned down for a job) can bring doubt raining down upon you and everything you thought was good about you, and all of us here know writing can easily do the same. Perhaps another rejection came in on your manuscript or that literary mag you submitted to turned you down. Or maybe you just came in dead last here at YeahWrite on a piece you could have sworn was a winner. How do you defeat that doubt that begins to trickle in and tell you that you’re just not good enough?

My sole piece of advice? Keep writing. Never stop writing. And eventually, that doubt you keep hearing whispering into your ear will be nothing but a memory. So let’s get to it. You know the drill. Bring us your best writing this weekend!

You got rules, right?

What?! It’s the weekend. There are no rules during the weekend. You can share a post that’s as many words as you like, a piece of fiction, a poem of your choosing, or a persuasive essay. Whatever you want, you can share. Well, except commercial or sponsored posts. That’s the one rule that never changes.

While you’re hanging out with us, please remember to visit other posts on the grid, comment, and take part in the community here! That’s what makes YeahWrite the place to be.

How to submit and fully participate in the Weekend Writing Showcase:

Basic YeahWrite guidelines: no word limit; no date restriction; no commercial/advertising posts (product reviews, sponsored posts, etc.); three post maximum per writer.
