Doubt

"Every writer's sanctuary: a cozy nook where stories come to life, doubts are silenced, and creativity flows as freely as the coffee in the cup. This is where the magic happens."

Do you ever doubt yourself when you’re writing? I do. Recently, I paid for a review on Reedsy, hoping for some valuable feedback, but it turned out to be generic and not very helpful. Thankfully, my uncle offered to take a closer look, and his comments on my manuscript made a lot of sense. They highlighted areas for improvement but also stirred up some self-doubt. Despite that, his feedback was incredibly helpful, and he encouraged me to keep writing. It reminded me why I write in the first place—not for others, but for myself. At this stage, writing is my creative outlet, my way of expressing and exploring the world around me. To anyone else who might be struggling with doubt: keep going. Write for yourself, let it be your outlet, and never let a little doubt stop you from creating something meaningful.
