Abstrakt: This article from Writer's Digest discusses the phenomenon of imposter syndrome among writers. Imposter syndrome is characterized by self-doubt and fear of being exposed as a fraud. The article provides examples of distorted thinking that can occur, such as believing that one's autobiography will be labeled as fiction or feeling unqualified to even experience writer's block. The article offers strategies to combat imposter syndrome, including self-validation, humor, and self-management. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing the difference between having a bad writing day and being an imposter. The authors, Mark Shatz and Bob Eckstein, provide their expertise as a psychology professor specializing in humor and a New York Times-bestselling author and cartoonist, respectively.
