This resonated with me. Putting my work up for other people to critique is scary, even if the help is something I want. My biggest fear is of wasting someone else's time by making them read or edit something I wrote.
I just want my writing to be good enough and I'm glad I found a community to help me achieve that. With time and confidence, I hope to offer the same to you.
Very well said, @alheath. The fact that you are putting yourself out there and opening up to critique will give you a big leg up in developing your craft.
