Let's just call this what it is... a baby step

I have not written in months... 

Not from a lack of trying... 

Because I have started over a dozen pieces... 

And they are all still just sitting there, half written carcasses of emotions and thoughts.

I can blame life for the lack of time to write, it is my normal excuse. 

I would not be putting blame in the right place though.  

I am writing, I am just not completing... 

For all kinds of reasons really...

My fear

My anxiety

My unwillingness to feel exposed and vulnerable.  

I need to get over it... 

I need to stop holding myself back as a writer.

I need to fight through my fear and self-doubt and let the world see what I am actually capable of.

I need to get over myself and allow my words to speak for themselves

I need to let go of the judgment and criticism I have created in my head and let my audience form their own opinions.

I always seem to find motivation when I ramp myself up... so I will let this be what it needs to be, a baby step in the process.
