I just want to say, I am absolutely my own worst critic as well. It's hard to get past my own fears long enough to let someone ELSE give me critique. But that's why this group is so wonderful. It's a way for us to share our similar feelings and woes, and help each other move past them. <br /><br />Anyways, I'm really glad I stopped by. Great blog!<br /><br />-http://pensuasion.blogspot.com/S. L.

Every once in a while I have to bitch slap my inner critic. It used to drive me crazy, but with time and lots of writing it's learning to listen to me. One day you will control that nasty inner critic in you.<br /><br />I agree! This blogging community is amazing. It brings so many of us like-minded folk together every day and offers inspiration and encouragment. I don't know what I'd do without it. Glad you're a part of it! :)Lunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284738955789123035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479041862769471989.post-84946472483225997722011-10-05T08:43:50.624-06:002011-10-05T08:43:50.624-06:00I am my own worst critic as well.

During the months and months while writing my first story I told myself every single night as I went to bed that I was being ridiculous and should stop. Then Morning Me would tell Night Me to shove off, and that's the only way I kept going.Nicki Elsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11412032684225126973noreply@blogger.com
