I Doubt

[ithildin]

So one of the drawbacks of not posting parts as I finish them is I start to obsess. I keep tinkering. And I start to doubt what I've written. I wrote something off the cuff, from the heart, then I go back and wonder 'is it too emo?' 'will people hate it?' So instead of posting last night as intended, I'm frozen in place, dithering over whether to keep or cut. Argh!

Steve Barnes once said "Books aren't finished, they escape." You can always do one more edit/polish. Trust that the readers (like me) who have praised your writing in the past will like what you have done.

And trust that real friends will tell you where you could improve!

Posting isn't carving it in granite, it can be revised if needed.

I'm a ditherer by nature, so I can't help myself :D Thanks!
