Beautifully worded and encouraging post, I fully agree! I'm new here on Steemit, and just beginning to share my songs, poetry, and art online. It's scary because it feels vulnerable, intimate and raw. But... that IS what makes it art, isn't it? If it feels safe and comfortable it probably isn't going to move anyone very much.

Bit by bit I'm letting go of my perfectionism death grip, taking deep breaths, reminding myself that it can be raw and unpolished and still be valuable, and putting it out there.
