I feel shy about sharing my writing because I am afraid people might not like it and criticize me. Do I have to share what I write with the group? Feeling shy about sharing your writing is very common for writers. You choose first of all if you want to share and if you do, you set the boundaries which make you feel safe and supported.

Goals are set by members based on what is best for them.
