How do people have the confidence to publish stories?

@DeadlyCat1561 Ugh tell me about it. I've got like forty outlines to write books for. Really though, I just hover over the publish button and then press it and never look back. I never reread my works until they're finished when I edit them. I literally just have to say "Fuck it". No one is going to give you hate probably. If people don't like it they'll probably just not read it. I've been on here for over two years, publishing since day one. Up until last summer, my books went by with 0 reads, 0 votes.

@kleptotoid I wish I could get to that mentality. I've written a few stories and gotten pretty far in them, and just because I didn't think anyone would like them I completely deleted them. Over quarantine I started writing again, but I'm still not feeling confident about any of it, I just keep jumping to different ideas. sorry if that was really long haha

@DeadlyCat1561  I just said "Fuck it". No one in real life will ever know it's me so what harm could it do? If people really hate something, I'll delete it. Maybe. Unless it's political.
