Hey there , 

What are you afraid of?

I’m not talking about spiders, or clowns, or running out of toilet paper here. I’m talking about those fears that keep you from moving ahead with your writing.

Even though it may really be important to us to write that article or work on our book, we sometimes (often?), find ourselves doing everything else first. Then, we convincingly lie to ourselves and say we’ll work on our writing later, tomorrow, or some day. We might be doing this because we’re actually afraid of something.

What often gets in our way are thoughts that begin with, “What if.”

What if I don’t know how to write this story well?

What if people don’t like it?

What if I can’t figure out how to publish my work?

What if it doesn’t sell?

Etc. etc. etc.

If we’re not careful, someday may never come. I encourage you to face your fears and get your writing done.

The Wednesday Writers Whatchamacallit will meet today starting at 12 PM Eastern, 11 AM Central, 10 AM Mountain and 9 AM Pacific. Hope to see you there.
