You. Is it just me, or do other creative people find it hard to see the worth and the value and the work that they're creating? Is it normal to doubt the things that you create? Now, maybe no one's telling you that it isn't good, but you're telling yourself that over and over again. And maybe it's true, maybe it's not. But how do you find the strength to just let the work go? Let it get out there?

Sharing it with a couple of friends, maybe at the beginning, or a couple people who you trust for feedback or just to hear what they think of it. Maybe little like a local magazine or a reading. I think readings are fantastic because you just get up and you do it and then it's over. It's an accomplishment in itself on many levels. But, yeah, I mean, I definitely relate to this, and I should take some of this advice myself because it is hard

I got a review once, a response on private message on Wattpad, which is where I wrote my first book when I turned 50. And she said, I don't know who you are or where you're from or how you did this, but you wrote down every fantasy and every beautiful idea that I ever had and put it in a book. And this was my first rough draft book. And that comment moved me so much that I have it

Hi. First of all, Sandy, thanks so much for sharing your insights on do creative people basically doubt themselves? Of course we do. I've done that plenty of times, especially with my writing. And so I wanted to share with you my thoughts on that. And also, while I'm at it, also replied to, if I'm not sure how their name is pronounced, I hope I don't destroy this. Is that correct? If I say that right?
