		<description>@Lois - I tend to have the same fears; speaking in public, book signings, etc.  But I&#039;m willing to get over it.  LOL.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kevin hasn&#039;t been on stage in quite awhile, but he loves it and thrives on it when he&#039;s there.  So maybe some of his enthusiasm will rub off on me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;@Alone - Oh lets not discuss math fears!  That&#039;s why I&#039;m a writer.  LOL.  English wasn&#039;t a great subject either, but after writing for so long I do find it quite interesting.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;@Milli - Glad you found some good journaling material.  I&#039;ve discovered recently that people can be afraid and not really realize it.  This blog post was like a journaling topic, I just sat down and asked a bunch of questions of myself and decided other&#039;s may benefit from asking themselves questions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks everyone for the comments!&lt;br&gt;Write On!</description>

		<description>Great questions, Patti. Each of these questions could be journaled about for more insight into what holds us back as writers. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Amazing how intangibles such as these can seem to have so much power over us. But we do have the power to change how we react, so that&#039;s the good news. Starting with penetrating questions to help understand our own internal blocks can be very helpful. I&#039;m planning to use some of your questions in my next journaling session. Thank you :~)</description>

		<description>Different people have different things that we scared of. I myself afraid of maths. mathematicophobia.. i guess?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;but I believe that it&#039;s something that we must fight. if not, it&#039;s a sad thing to lost with our own feelings.</description>

		<description>Oh, yes.  I&#039;m afraid!  I&#039;m afraid that if I become a success, suddenly I will have to read out loud to people.  I&#039;m afraid people will want to meet me and I won&#039;t measure up!  I&#039;m afraid that I&#039;ll run out of ideas and won&#039;t have any more books to write.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;m overcoming it by writing.  Writing is the best cure for writer&#039;s block and it&#039;s the best way to overcome fears.  Write about your fears.  Write about your dreams.  Write, write and keep on writing!  :D</description>
