I read a quote somewhere to the effect that to be a writer is to be exposed - and it's true. To write, you have to put aside inhibitions and self-consciousness and know that you're going to be showing parts of your psyche to the whole world - or whatever (unpredicatable) part of it cares to read. With no guarantee they'll be gentle with it.
But it doesn't matter, the work is the important thing.
