Having also self-published, your words resonated with me massively. The fears and anxiety, the acceptance of taking the chance and betting on yourself. For me, it was just the want, maybe even the need, to get something out there. To break the cycle of trying to go down the traditional publishing route and just get work out there for the sake of the craft. I'm glad I took the plunge.

100%. Breaking that cycle was a big part of it too. So glad to hear you took a chance on yourself.
