Maybe not everyone will read it, but the people who do will cherish it close to their hearts. Writing holds a lot of power, don’t let the fear of the public eye get you down <33 you got this!!!
Thank you for your encouragement, I appreciate it a bunch 💖
I think the whole idea that publishing or sharing things online is like spreading something out to the masses is the wrong idea. We try to convince ourselves that if it only reaches one person it will have been worth it, but that result is so far from what we inevitably imagine that it feels like a total failure. I think that you can't think about writing that way. Instead of something that you share with absolutely everyone, it is more like a flask post. You are on an island, which we all are in one way or another, and you are writing something which you will put in a bottle and throw out into the ocean in the dream or hope that it will find itself to someone on the other side. I think that for most of us, that is how the internet actually works.
In the end the process of creating the work is for your enjoyment, so if you’re inspired you should do it! Then those who do want to read it will find it. But you’ve already had success just by creating
Lots of people still read too :3

I understand, I feel like my art is too personal to be approachable by most people. Even so I receive a lot of support from friends and strangers alike. Someone will always appreciate honest art, it may just take some time for it to reach the right people.
i feel this. i hope you keep working on your book! i don't think it's a waste of time
