And here's me trying to keep too much personal stuff out of my writing (and failing because it seems natural to me to include more about myself) because I think people won't be interested or won't be able to relate! Great advice.

We're writers, @catonwheels, it's all personal ;) I for one love your work and I'm glad that you share it with us.
Thank you <3
I have thought quite a bit about how I could keep myself out of my writing and have determined it is impossible. I can't keep myself from exposing myself when I write, because the only things that I have to share are my thoughts and experiences and those are uniquely mine. We can keep certain aspects of our lives hidden, but I do think that as we open up people will be more interested in our stories.
@n4t3w Wise words. I am always worried about revealing too much online for various reasons, but your right if you want to gain an audience opening up more is inevitable!
I hope this helps. People love true and genuine stories.
It does, thank you so much.
