On a podcast I listened to a few months ago I heard a line that struck a chord:

People connect with stories they see themselves in.

That’s handy, I thought. I’ve got a few stories, a lot of them about things that other people might see themselves in.

They’re often about fear and other psychological barriers I’ve faced. Common stuff. They’re often personal and I always think twice before writing them, nevermind publishing them.

But if I just do it, and write them, then publish them, what’s the worst that can happen? What good might come of it?

Hopefully at least one person will see themselves in my stories and appreciate that they’re not alone in occasionally feeling rubbish or stupid or like an impostor.

This is why the forthcoming book is as much about personal battles as internet education. It simply has to be because without the battles I wouldn’t be able to offer much about the online stuff.
