Writing a lot doesn't make me a great writer, but this isn't to say I am a terrible writer either. I am just "a writer".

This is really relatable because I do write a lot (because I'm not really good at relaying thoughts verbally), but this doesn't mean that I write well or badly. Like you, I'm just a writer, and I know I have a long way to go.

they consume so much content from others that makes them feel like they can't do as well, so why bother

I also feel this one because there are really times that I hesitate to share my writings with other people because they tend to compare mine to those of other, more established writers. This somehow discourages me because I know it's true that my writing skill is really inferior to those with whom I'm compared. But... I realized, Why do I need to be bothered by what they've said? Those were just their opinions, and their opinions don't have to necessarily affect me.
