Rock Hill,, US - - October 30, 2014 /PressCable/ —
As part of their ongoing efforts to provide the best information on Writing Fantasy, Magical Words has published a new article entitled Self-Doubt and Perspective which sheds light on some of the struggles of the process of writing fantasy for fiction writers. Interested individuals can view the full article at http://www.magicalwords.net/lucienne-diver/self-do…
One of the frequent contributors, Lucienne Diver, for Magical Words writes at the website one of the most surprising pieces of information in the article is the fact that, “If I let self-doubt rule the day, I would never finish a single book I start. There comes at least one point in every novel where I decide it sucks, that “I’ve wasted my time and there’s no point wasting more.”
Lucienne is a professional editor with multiple fantasy novels and fantasy series under her belt, is giving some of her best advice on overcoming the mountain of self-obstruction that drives her and many other writers to question the validity and quality of their work.
Lucienne continues in the article, “the self-doubt worked its wiles. It kept me from submitting, yes, but even after I did and I was published, it made it difficult for me to promote, to say, “Buy my book” and bear the responsibility that someone would shell out money and be disappointed in the work. In me.” Lucienne goes on to reveal that her friends are her most important weapon in defeating self-doubt.
Many writers have to agree with something Sylvia Plath said, “The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.” Many amateur writers when asked about their own work like to hide behind the old line of, “I simply write for myself, I don’t care if anyone reads it.” Artist create to have their work seen.
