Two days ago, Charlie posted a video sharing his fears.

Then his friend Michael posted this video.

I am working on my fourth novel for NaNoWriMo, and there are points when my Inner Editor* says no one will want to read this novel, let alone publish it. The novel is so different from anything that I have ever read, I am worried and scared no one will like it except me. But creating the novel and experiencing the journey with a destination in sight (November 30), I push forward anyway. I am allowed to enjoy the process of this novel. Critiquing, revising, and editing comes later.
