I’m too insecure for this world.

My mom and my friends keep telling me that I should send my writing out to publishers and so on but I just can’t find the balls for it. I feel so insecure about my writings and stories, I highly doubt that they’re worth a shit and in all honesty they’re not that good. I guess they’re nice but just not good enough for anything bigger than tumblr. I’m such a fucktard when it comes to that cause I want nothing more than become a writer, I want to do this for the rest of my life but I just don’t have the certainty that I’m able to do this. I read a lot. Different books, stories, poems and so on and I’m not even half as talented. Ugh my fucking brain. I know I should just give it a shot and follow my dream but I don’t know I’m just not feeling the will to put myself out there so much just to get nothing back.

You have your own way to write and I think it can be the thing that gets the attention. If you keep comparing yourself to others, you…
