Welcome to our SIXTH IWSG Day of 2026.
IWSG is a writers' support group created and led by Alex J. Cavanaugh.
At IWSG, we believe in the power of sharing and encouragement. Writers of all levels and genres can express their doubts and concerns without fear of judgment. Our community is a haven for all insecure writers and a source of encouragement and support for others.
So, if you're a writer seeking a supportive community, IWSG is the place for you. Join us and experience the benefits of sharing your journey with like-minded individuals. The link below will lead you directly to us.

OBSERVATIONS OF EVERYDAY PEOPLE THAT HELP ME SPIN A STORY BY PAT GARCIA
I write multicultural Romance and Romantic suspense, and my topics stem from what I observe whenever I'm out and about in Europe. Depending upon the plot, these people become my major or minor characters.
The first thing I ask myself is whether they would fit into my main plot, or whether I need subplots to increase the suspense.
I like my stories because I'm introducing concepts from the Bible: that God is no respecter of people, meaning my main female character doesn't have to be white, blonde, or red-haired. It is a new way of looking at life, and it challenges people to be open and to live life more meaningfully.
Have a lovely month of June, and take care.
Shalom shalom
Pat Garcia
