I don't think that writing needs to be Joyce to be quality. I just think that it needs to be authentic and of interest to be be worth the effort. And as all insights could be of interest to somebody then who can judge if a post is quality or not?
My partner would be an anxious person as well and as one of those people who don't take life too seriously i can often find it hard to relate but i have gotten better over time. I find that most of it stems from trying to compare herself to others and their accomplishments and what other think of her.
But none of it matter really. You have to write for your own love of writing. Hive has changed a lot over the years but learning it's intricacies is one of the fun parts of being in the community.
There are lots of ways to join now but plenty of knowledge between all of us to figure it out. Just ask the questions and we'll do our best to help find out the answers.
