this is in reaction to a few conversations I've seen lately on bsky and discord. yes, you should feel free to share your own work. blanket permission statements are IMO a sign of humility. hoping that a reader feels something & leaves you a comment is not clout chasing.
you're allowed to feel how you feel about your work & about writing in general. creation can be messy & isn't always a great time. empathy toward fellow creators will go a long way.
