I think fear doesn't just stop writers connecting with readers, it stops people from connecting with people in general. Fear of rejection/not being liked, fear of their judgement of us. Does it matter if people think you're crazy or have lost your marbles?

Good post . Balancing confidence is often tricky.

A little tip : I generally use Dragon voice recognition software. I dictate!

Perhaps dictation quells fear in writing.

Energy a different topic however it must be primarily mind over matter “ I feel fabulous “ v “ I’m wrecked “.

It’s amazing what we can do when put under pressure. The mind can kick in.

One of my old rugby coaches used to say the most intelligent guys were props ! Mind over matter when put under pressure!

I played 10. I was a genius!
