note: this is part of #bloganuary where each day in the month of January, there is a prompt that we can write on.
Also, I am going to use this post to get caught up so that I can get back to publishing on the same day as the prompt. This will be short and sweet as they say.
About 12 months ago, I published for the first time to bloganuary. I was terrified to hit the publish button. What will people think, what if I suck. As I mentioned in one of the earlier posts this month, day after day, I would receive the email with the prompt. Day after day, I would generate a response in my head, but that is as far as it would go. Never making it to my keyboard. Finally, more than half way through the month before I responded and published my first post. My insides were shaking with fear and excitement. I am so glad that I took the plunge and overcame that fear and anxiety. I love working on my craft. I have enjoyed the pressure that bloganuary places on all of us to think on the fly and create content. It has made me a stronger writer and a better thinker. I do not have a week or two that I can think, write, and edit to perfection. I have 24 hours and I have been using this to experiment with different writing processes over the course of the month too.
What fear have I conquered? Being here with all of you amazing supportive writers. Thank you,
Have a good one y’all.
