Sometimes when an actor is about to step on stage, he experiences an overpowering fear that he won’t be able to perform. In the case of a writer, it’s the same sort of dynamic. He may not believe he can cut the mustard. To a professional writer, however, the option of “wimping out” doesn’t exist. He writes or he doesn’t eat.
