I'm nervous about the reader part. They tend not to write form rejections or give you the silent treatment.

It seems very a...That's a great quote! Thanks!<br /><br />It seems very apt for me right now, since -- after a moment of brief excitement and inspiration -- I was having doubts again about my next WIP, the third book in a series.<br /><br />Since I pulled off Books 1 & 2 to the satisfaction of my editor, why would I doubt Book 3 so much? Just because I hadn't worked out all the plot kinks yet? All my books begin like that!<br /><br />Your quote points out the real problem. My doubt is based on a faulty premise: that I can't write a good story. I need to doubt the validity of the doubt, and let my writing process develop as it always does (starting with a really stinky first draft!).Dianne K.
