Goals

I've decided not to wait until new years to make a resolution.
I have decided to start a blog as a way to just in general ramble. Good, bad, ugly, or even whiney, it shall be posted.
I'm going to begin with a goal of one post per week. Whether it is about a book I've read, a class I'm taking, a story idea, or just in general frustrations, amusements, or even something I found humorous, I will post.

Today's post... other than about goals...is about fear.

The motivation for me to start this blog happened while I was at work and realized that I was afraid. Whether it is fear of success, or fear of being censored in my writing. Or even, sometimes the fear that despite the fact that I poured my heart into a story, someone out there will tell me that it sucks. Because at the end of the day, I'm still human. I love writing. It's one of the things that makes me feel the most like myself. But it's still a very scary thing to put yourself out there and hope that other people will think that you have written something worth reading.

Fear has gotten me nowhere.
So now, I attemp[t to take control of my fear and control it. To make it work for me and use it as a muse and/or motivator to write more.
