Writing Through Impostor's Syndrome

Good morning writing world! I was watching Live T.V. through my Amazon Fire T.V. Stick yesterday and experienced the most affirming writer's moment to date. In the movie, the protagonist was a bestselling novelist doubting her ability.

Sound familiar? For you self-assured writers who know how good you are and write so well no edits are needed...I'm happy for you. No, wait. No I'm not. I seriously don't understand you! Am I jealous of you? Nah, I don't have enough energy for that. I'm too busy burning my energy creating and writing while plowing through writer's doubt better known as impostor's syndrome.

As I listened to the protagonist, I heard my own voice echoing through the screen. What's my point in all of this? Maybe I am an impostor but I'm in LOVE with what I do. I am passionate about writing and I'm going to keep doing it until the writing police come and arrest me for impersonating a real

author :-)

To play devil's advocate, what if I'm the real author waiting to be discovered? Now that's an exciting possibility. I can't wait to find out.
