My fears and anxieties about my writing career

 

Being a writer means a huge range of emotions but one of the ones that is the worst is fear and anxiety. 


I always ask myself questions like:

Is my writing good enough? 

Am I a fraud? 

Will I ever make it? 

Should I just give up?

Is my book good enough?

Do people even like my work?

And so much more but the real question is how do I manage these emotions?


I try and remind myself that people liked my wattpad books even unedited with many plot holes, I remind myself how much I have grown over the past few years with my writing and how I continue to grow and get better each day I write.
