Yes, really.

Hats, etc. The entire point of this post is to direct people fic writers over to this other post which was probably a bad idea in and of itself.

Possibly we can discuss how bad an idea it is over here?

Not a bad idea at all. Sadly, it's not the lack of ideas that kicking my ass. It's the lack of self-confidence. And between work and school by the time I sit down at my computer to write I am completely fried.

Honestly, I think I'm suffering the same fate. At the very least, my lack of ideas is caused by my lack of confidence. I might get a killer idea, but I'm so frustrated by my lack of talent that I never bother to try to remember them.

My confidence problems stem from being told for years that I wasn't good enough and that no one really cared to hear what I had to say. I'm fortunate now to have a good support system in my friends but it's hard to reverse years of damage.

I've read some of your writing and it's good.

Meh...I consider myself a talentless hack compared to some of the quality writers in this fandom... :-\

I think I'm a talentless hack and you're one of the quality writers in this fandom.

Can we just have another round of 'writers appreciation week'?
