Why am I afraid4 total reviews
Comment from Michael Ludwinder
You made me think about the cost of truth-telling. I loved how you included personal experiences into your writing. The way you blended real fears with specific moments from your life made your writing feel real. I can really sense the weight of your reflections and the inner struggle you've carried with you. Keep up the amazing work!

Thank you for this, I consider myself reasonably articulate, but some of those phobias you listed in your initial list of such were unpronounceable, the sounded like a town in a Welsh town, heh heh. Yes truth is an interesting one, but I don't think if someone is ugly you tell them so, or publicly ridiculing them, which violates the law of respect, mmmh difficult, thanks for sharing, well done, blessings Roy

The lead-in with the phobias works very well. Your story is horrifying, but the connectors make it work. Honestly, I feel a bit nauseated, so you told it well. No wonder you have a fear of telling the truth. gayla

Thank you, Gayla, for reading and commenting. I appreciate it. I guess I don't realize how bad it is until someone reacts to my telling.
