Fraidy Dog
This weekend we expanded our family by one. This one:
Meet Ada Clare. Bonus points if you figure out who I named her after.
Anyhoo, my biggest fear inspired by this cute ball of black fur was my first night with her. Last night. Yes, my eyes are bloodshot and I'm a little tired because of the whole 5 a.m. potty excursion. Such is life with a puppy. But at least I'm over the fear of the first night because, well, it's over. I know. Irrational right?
I'm not the only one. Here are a list of a few writerly fears that maybe you've encountered. . .
graphophobia = the fear of writing
bibliophobia = fear of books
logizomechanophobia = fear of computers
