I wanna post my fanfiction so badly but I'm so terribly afraid of the possibility of being unworthy of uploading it online. I've read fanfics that rival novels and I wanna write just like the authors behind said fanfics. Despite reading books/fanfics for many years now, I still consider my writing mediocre, I don't know if I'm just really insecure about my work or I really am a horrible writer. The amount of ideas that explode in my head everyday is enough to give me a headache, I have the means to write the ideas digitally and on paper and I yearn to share my work, but I really just can't bring myself to press the 'Post' or 'Send' Button. The insecurity regarding my work doesn't stem from an ego deathly afraid of criticism, but rather from my inferiority complex. Hopefully, there comes a day where the courage I've built is enough to persuade myself to post my work.

@morn1nglenjiii hi! i understand what you’re trying to say and believe it’s completely normal feel that way. as a writer, i face doubts from time to time regarding my own work. your post alone already shows serious self-awareness which is a huge writing skill! however, don’t let it discourage you from sharing something wonderful and worth it especially when it’s something you love doing. so i say, go for it and don’t be too hard on yourself! :)
