It's like hearing your own voice on a recording sometimes. it sounds good in your head but not so much when you hear it. And that's okay. That's what drafts, revisions and editors are for. And if your writing is shockingly bad, think of it this way: before you can write a good story, you need to write a bad story. Before you can write a bad story, you need to write a story.(less)
