The Insecure Writer




It seems there's a Facebook group for everything out there. One of them caught my attention when a friend highlighted it on her blog: Insecure Writers.

Whether you're pre-published or published, there are plenty of questions rattling around your brain:

Pre-published

1.  Am I really a writer?
2.  Is what I'm writing good enough?
3.  Will anyone want to read what I write?

Published

1.  Can I handle the marketing and still find time to write?
2.  What does it mean when readers are silent?
3.  Will I be able to write another book or am I a one-book wonder?

In the next few Monday posts, we'll take a look at some of these questions and hopefully discuss them in the comments.

Writers:  What are some of the things that concern you (pre-published or published)?

Readers:  What does it mean when you're silent about a book you've read? Does it automatically mean you didn't like it?

This is a good idea for a series. I think I have asked all these questions at some point (today, even!). One thing that challenges me is wanting to stay on top of everything when you book is out. It's a tough balance to maintain. Happy writing! :)

I fear I will never finish my project and fear if I do, no one will read it! I look forward to your series Susan!
