I’ve always felt like my books were flukes. I didn’t earn these accomplishments, I just somehow managed to trick everyone and spit them out.

I’ve never taken a compliment very well. I figured people are just saying these things to be nice.

Every success I’ve had, I’ve discounted it to an accident in my favour.

Turns out that’s extremely common, and it’s called Imposter Syndrome. “Pluralistic Ignorance” is another name it goes by, when you doubt yourself, and you think you’re the only one who feels that way. The time to shake this feeling is now, and they say the cure is to talk about it.

So here lies a pile of books. I MADE THESE. THEY ARE F***ING COOL. I’M ACTUALLY SO PROUD OF THESE THINGS. They are full of stories I cherish, moments I long for, and photos I captured with my camera (and Momo).

Of course, no success comes without its community of supporters, and I wouldn’t be anywhere without you (and my dogs). I’ll allow myself the truth that I accomplished these books, and I’ll be proud of them, but I’ll always be grateful to everyone who has bought one, shared one, shared a photo of mine, and especially to you, the person who sent me a compliment, and I was too dense to accept it.

How many of you can relate to imposter syndrome? Say “I”, and tell me one thing you’ve accomplished that you absolutely deserve to be proud of.
