Done
Writing for public consumption is terrifying to me, which is funny for someone who has been a journalist, editor, or writer for a decade. When I was a practicing journalist, I would edit and edit until I would just have to rewrite everything. I’ve done that constantly on this blog too. There are huge pieces missing from these story lines, because I keep completely deleting blog entries. Not wanting to show weakness is so very human. I’m going to start facing my fears more. If I’m ever going to be healthy in a relationship, I need to try to be vulnerable. Things are going to get more vulnerable from here.
So there. I did it. Now I’m going to do this, for real. I’m going to put myself out there as a writer. I’m going to write the way I’ve been meaning to this entire time, but have been too afraid because it’s easier to just obsess about what goes on in my head. This is not necessarily the end of this blog, but I think I will go back to privately writing to process things. Thank you for reading my ramblings over this last year.
