How to Overcome Your Fear of Sharing Your Writing

When i first started writing novels, i was terrified to share them. Every negative critique or review felt like an invalidation of not just my writing skills, but my personhood. Learning to overcome our insecurities as writers is a process that cycles through our lives over and over again. I rather think that the continuing presence of this fear means we are doing something it means we are writing on the jagged edge of ourselves,. sharing our deepest human vulnerabilities and pushing our skills to the limit. Have you ever been afraid to let any one read your writing? Now i hope you'll share your experience with this with me.
