Imposter syndrome. A lot of us have it, especially when we experience things that make us question our skills. In this episode, I’ll discuss my own experiences with imposter syndrome and being an author, so you can be sure to know you’re not alone, and that this is a really normal concern for artists. I hope you’ll even subscribe for more of my insight on the writer life.
