I believe I was initially attracted to Mythic Scribes not just because it was a writing site (I'd been to several before) but because it was a fantasy writing site. One thing I thought for a long time is that there weren't enough places for fantasy writers to discuss their craft and such. There were loads of opportunities to discuss other people's work, whether it be novels, TV, movies, short stories, etc. To talk about how much you love this writer or that writer. How you love a certain TV show.
I've loved the genre for a long time and the majority of the books I read are fantasy. I have been reading more outside the genre as of late to help balance myself better. But one question I've been asking myself lately is "Do I love what I'm writing?"
I think I'm getting closer and closer to the answer being "Yes." I wonder how other people feel about themselves. Are you loving what you write? Do you feel pride in it? If not, what do you think is holding you back? Is it doubt in your skills, your ideas, or your execution?
I just wonder because I'm feeling as comfortable in my writing skin as I have in my whole life. I hope that somehow gives me the confidence to shake off any bad reviews I will ultimately get and stand behind my work.
What say you? Do you love what you're writing?
