"Bold writers run the risk not only that readers in general will see right through them but that readers they care about will see them for who they are and walk away. Authors always feel in danger of being abandoned by loved ones. This is a potent fear." ~ Ralph Keyes.
How to let go of fear and anxiety by taking control of the matter.
This week I learned I need to take care of me. I need to make me a priority.
Why do you withhold your love? We do it at one time or another. We shut people out, refuse to budge from our opions or demands. we hold people hostage, know that they care about us, because we are angry or upset with them. For example, family members and friends. we are holding grudges against them because of things they have did to us. Sometimes we make ourselves busy.

Fear seems to be a trait that many of us struggle with from time to time. Some struggle with it much of the time.

Nobody can predict if your writing will succeed or fail. Some writers who are gifted with talent will never make it to first base. Others who show little talent will succeed as writers through perseverance and hard work. Never make any bets on writers. It can’t be predicted. Some writers are more confident with non-fiction, others turn to fiction. Choose what you are most comfortable with and fill that blank page with your words. Don’t worry about failure. If you don’t get it right this time, there’s always a next time.
