Writing in Public: First Barrier

I already rewrote this line 6 times. A cliche, but true, advice given by veteran writers to every single person who is researching on how to be a writer is — just to start.

Starting point is the most difficult point, as my current experience shows. Inscribing ones own opinion to public is even harder. As a person writes his opinion, he pecks words from his active vocabulary list that is shortened by anxiety, wishing to express his opinion the way he wants to. The anxiety being induced by a vivid image of readers scratching their heads while reading the scribbles at hand.

Regardless, even if they scratch their heads, there should be a starting point in a graph. A graph can’t rise if it doesn’t start, right? Henceforth, the first barrier for a graph to rise is the starting point. As a result, just writing is the only method for me or anyone of passing this barrier. It seems.

I attempted to pass this barrier 2 am in the morning.
