WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 16 -- Thursday

[linaewen]

Hello on Thursday!  What kind of a writing day has it been today -- or yesterday, if today hasn't gotten going yet?

•     I thought about my fic once or twice
•     I wrote
•     I did some planning and/or research
•     I edited
•     I've sent my fic off to my beta
•     I posted today!
•     I'm taking a break
•     I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

Thursday Discussion - When you first started writing, were you shy or hesitant about sharing it or posting it for public view?

Hoping to at least do some research and planning today, if not actual writing. I've only managed 100 words this month so far, so I need to start doing better, and soon!

When I first started writing, I was a bit nervous about sharing, but not too bad -- because I had some confidence already with "public" writing, even though it wasn't fiction. The fact that I was in a community of other writers and readers who were encouraging and made me feel safe helped a lot, so my nervousness quickly vanished after my first piece of fic went up for public viewing.
