criticize you, or putting your writing on the back burner.

successful. Forget those people who tell you to change, to put on a
different personality, to dance like a monkey before crowds. Here

Distractions, No More Blank Pages (Adams Media) "Shy types, rejoice

successful writing career, but this wonderful covers-all-the-bases

Author, "The Well-Fed Writer" series, www.wellfedwriter.com "The
number one thing that holds writers back is fear. For introverts --
who, ironically, are drawn to writing because they think you can do
it alone -- the fear is even bigger. Interviews, book signings,
public speaking -- many of the tasks of a freelance writer demand
that you be social and perform. But don't fret -- Hope has
solutions in The Shy Writer Reborn that let you make the most of
who you are instead of asking you to change your personality."
