Fears

Hey everyone!

As I continue to create and learn about my MC in my new story, I try to find ways to make her relatable and realistic. Something everybody has is fear. You may be afraid of the ocean or spiders and it is just another thing that makes you, you.

Everyone has fears and so should your characters.:) I am here to make a list of the many fears that some people have, so that you can use any of them for your character.:)
