Give yourself to the embarrassment. Publish for your past self. Or publish for someone smarter to come along and correct you.

(Currently trying to take this advice as well)

Love this advice. I’ve always struggled with the same thing.

One friend started telling me to get over myself and publish, then he reworded it to:

“Get over being under yourself.”

For some reason that one stuck with me and gave me the strength to ship my first few pieces of writing.
