Contradictory feelings

It's a strange thing. When I finish a novel or short story, I feel excited about what I have just done. I'm sure it reads well. But at the same time, I am gripped by a incredible insecurity about my writing.

It's a contradiction.

But then I get comments from those whose opinions I trust -- both good and bad opinions. And while offering suggestions for improvements, they are always encouraging of my progress as a writer.

So, I feel better and keep writing.

Anyway, I decided to let you in on a little of my insecurities. Have a good day and keep writing.
