This whole question about writing to share with others is a double-edged sword. Yes, I do want others to read what I've written. That's a given. At the same time, the idea of strangers "out there" reading my work is more than a little daunting. I recently signed a contract with Total-e-Bound books for a novella (my very first "published" work, to be released in September) and at the same time I'm both terrified of the idea that people will read it and afraid that no one will want to!
To be a writer is to be contrary.
