#WordWeavers 12, What would you tell a fellow writer who was struggling with self-doubt?

"The greater the artist, the greater the doubt. Perfect confidence is granted to the less talented as a consolation prize."

Robert Hughes

[Modernism's Patriarch (Time Magazine, June 10, 1996)]

In my own words: Self-doubt means you'll never accidentally think something is good that actually is not; and that is exactly the skill it takes to create something uniquely beautiful.
