Should I join the writers guild?
Should aspiring writers have a blog?
Maybe. [Hahaha, funny thing. My blog was previous locked (but not deleted) for a while and let me tell you in those two weeks I was both with and without a blog and it was not great so what I’m saying is choose one and go for it don’t sit on the fence. The fence hurts and feels like ants in your pants.]
Should freelance writers incorporate?
No. Yes? [Apparently this lowers taxes and rainbows and lollipops and liability for freelancers who need protection from liable things. So that’s good. I mean, I’m essentially Han Solo on the matter. I have no idea what I’m doing or what this is but give me a scene and I’ll pretend like I do and also steal all the hearts.]
Should I join a writers group?
Yes. [If you enjoy honing your skills with peers, figuring out how to socialise, realising these people are great because you can be awkward and they find it charming, and writing. If those things then yes].
Are you in a writers group or guild? Do you have a blog? I do, you’re in it, but as I say it was once in limbo and in those moments waiting for a decision on its fate I realised I truly need this blog essentially to type random words and place weird gifs in but that is reason enough right?

This is a great feature, that google auto-complete feature can give you a lot of possibilities! I'm not a writer but I think these are great questions that writers should keep in mind to get their works out there 🙂
I do enjoy visiting author blogs, it updates me on their upcoming works plus I discover their older works too!
Hey Mia! Love the new look for the blog!!! Also, long time no see. I love your question-answer sessions, btw. I'm sorry I haven't commented lately (life = hectic), but yes, they are very cool and you are definitely Han Solo (does that mean I can be an Ewok? I want to be an Ewok) ( If that's how you spell it) (or even better, can I be R2D2?). *hugs*, Tessa
We have a guild in my state, with most of the members in my city. I even know many of the members. But I haven't joined. It's a $25 annual fee, and all of their meetings are in the middle of the day in the middle of the week (exactly the time when I'm working, because, unlike them, I'm not retired). And many of the members are still focused on traditional publishing, which I have no desire to pursue.
I answered yes to your other questions!
And I think Han Solo counts as a space cowboy.
Ahhh I see, yea, I guess you have to do what's best for your focus.
Woop! Han Solo the space cowboy! I love Han so much.

No group or guild, but I have three blogs. Not incorporated, but I am an autoentrepreneur (sounds good, means self-employed) although the ponderous system hasn't caught up, so I'm only registered for IT work. Living in a very rural part of the middle of France has its complications but I wouldn't change it for anything.
Be warned – you are added to my Blogger reading list!
I like the look of your blog, very pleasant (though I'm not a fan if Disqus). I do have a blog – you found me there. I did (recently) join a writing group and I do feel awkward and goofy!
Tessa! Hi!! omg i missed you <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
You can be R2D2! Of course! Together we will adventure around the universe! *hugs*
