You finish the book, and then a mountain of doubts smash you against the wall…
Why did you decide to tell that story…
Why did you write those characters…
Who were you to invest in those lives…
How dare you write those characters…
Are you even a good writer?
Who will even read that book?
Who will discover it?
Who will publish it?
What did you do it for?
Why don’t you just give up?
Why don’t you just desist.
Yes, desist.
