Fear has duality. It can be the reason why you run and hide. It can be the reason you stay and fight.
Fear is a powerful motivator
Fear is an emotion.
Fear is just fear.
Twenty years ago, I sat down and wrote a novel, sent it to an agent, and then let it accumulate dust in the desk drawer.
Why, you ask, would you do this?
Fear....pure and simple, fear. I was afraid that it wasn't good enough, that people wouldn't read it, and I didn't know if I could handle that kind of rejection.
So, you my fellow steemians, will be the recipients of my irrational fear.
Starting tomorrow, I will start posting the unpublished story and you get to read it.
It's time to stop being afraid.
Oh, and when I'm through posting this story, I'll start posting my more recent works, and hopefully you'll be able to see how I've improved in the last 20 years.
