My Fears As A Writer|ChandlerTheAmateurWriter

Hello Everyone!
So I've been thinking about my goals for my book and something came to me.
I starting thinking about all the things that could go wrong with my book and career.
I know you're not suppose to think about negative things but I was curious.
What are some of my fears?
I feel if I share my fears as a writer, I will be able to overcome them.
Because admitting I have fears is a great step to overcoming them,
So here are some of my fears as a writer.

NO ONE WILL LIKE MY BOOK
I know everyone has this fear but I'm truly terrified about it.
I am very happy with my book but the idea of putting my book out there it nerve wrecking.
Imagine thousands of people telling you something you created was bad.
That is enough to make me hide in my room forever.

BECOMING TOO SUCCESSFUL
Just like not selling books. The idea of selling hundreds is terrifying.
Going from a nobody to a somebody in a matter of months is scary.
People will want autographs, everyone will be in your business. It would just be a mess. 
Not saying I don't want my book to be successful but I'm just nervous about it going big.

NEVER BEING PLEASED
I always hear authors take about how they're never pleased with their books.
I don't want to write ten plus books and not be content with them.
That would truly be hell because I won't appreciate my book.

DOUBTING MYSELF
This is my main fear/biggest problem.
I have a lot of self doubt.
Sometimes it gets to the point where I don't want to continue writing.
A lot of people tell me how ridiculous it is but it's a serious fear.
Self doubt can stop you from writing a book altogether.
So I always try to motivate myself with Anne Rice's books.

But those are some of my main fears. I'm sure so many of you can relate to this.

I'll be back soon.
Bye.
