Building your confidence to showcase your work

For as long as I can remember, I've never been afraid to display my work. I've always been confident in my writings and what their story told. Of course, I always had quite a few spelling errors but I was never afraid to let someone read my work.



Not all writers are like me. Some love to write but don't have the nerve to show anyone. If you are looking to get published, write a best seller, you must first work up the nerve to show your work. You don't have to join a contest or yell it to the world that you have a new writing. Start small. Join a small group that allows first time writers to display their work. Or begin a blog. Invite certain people to read your blog and then when you get the courage to branch out, you can post more or take the next step to join contest or bigger groups. You can always start as small as to letting your family and friends read your work first.



What's most important is that you love your work. Once you have the confidence in what you do, it won't really matter what other people have to say. So start small and build your confidence that way. In no time you will be able to post in major gruops and networks and then get your work published.
