More and more often, I find that damned near everybody I know (beyond fandom) writes, even writes poetry. How can I be thinking I could make anything of it if everybody else out there's already/also doing it, and mine isn't any better than theirs? How can I consider what I do special enough to even think I could attempt it as a livelihood?
I haven't read much of your stuff (my bad:/) but I've read some of the poetry you've posted lately & have been impressed (poetry, I think, is much more difficult to write well). You just have to believe that you have something to say - you certainly have the skills to say it.
