So do any of you guys ever judge yourself too harshly when it comes to your writing, and it sort of becomes a scary thing to sit down and write again? That's kind of what I'm dealing with right now. I have this kind of grand world I'm building, and I'm in love with it. But I'm terrified as to how it would work, if I missed something, or if it simply isn't good enough. So I've hidden it away and I'm hiding from it. I spent months working on it, and now it scares me. How on Earth did Tolkien do it?
So here's a penguin to lighten the mood. I guess I really just need encouragement with my writing right now. Maybe someone to not judge me and give honest feed back for what I've done thus far.
