You are definitely not alone in feeling this way.

…at that point I’m convinced what I’m about to pen will be the greatest work of fiction of all time. This beautiful delusion continues for much of the writing process, but then — typically a short way into Act Two — a horrible nagging feeling creeps in: “What if they don’t like it? What if they think I’m no good? I just can’t take that kind of rejection!”

You are definitely not alone in feeling this way. I've had a bout of it with my new novel just this week. Just keep at it.

Writer, bookseller, would-be roadie for the E Street Band. My ultimate goal is to make books as popular in Texas as high school football...it may take a while.
