  This is my   Insecure Writers Support Group   post for February. Alex's awesome co-hosts this month  are:  Louise - Fundy Blue ,   Jennifer Lane,   Mary Aalgaard,   Patsy Collins at Womagwriter,   and  Nancy Gideon! Please stop by their blogs and say thank you .  February 3rd question: Blogging is often more than sharing stories. It's often the start of special friendships and relationships. Have you made any friends through the blogosphere? Heck yeah! Although one of my longest-running friendships came first, before the blogging. I met Carrie Butler on a writer's site when I was looking for a CP. Being a marketing major, she drop-kicked me into  nudged me to start blogging right before one of Rachael Harrie's Platform-Building campaigns. That grew my following fast.
