I relate to this on various levels — I find that the writing that I am often the most proud of is the one that led me down the longest path of self-doubt. It's a strange mystery.

I'm curious to hear about your writing experience and how it relates to your relationships. Do you ask for people's feedback? Do you isolate yourself for days and just write?

Keep up the good work. More self-doubt please. Or maybe not. I don't know.

Great essay! Really enjoyed it. Self-doubt is pretty much like my writing process works. And the more doubtful I am, the better the work (in retrospective subjective evaluation), and the more important it to me. And it doesn’t change over time, not yet at least.
