Right now I'm working on getting my novel Zombie Cafe ready to self-publish.

I don't have a problem with writer's block.
On the other hand, I deal a lot with writer's procrastination, that feet of clay moment before starting a new piece due to lack of confidence. Can I actually write a complete story again? Do I have any talent at all? Do I have the energy to write, rewrite, proofread, try to get it published? All this vanishes once I start writing and the story and characters take hold.
I actually tried to give up writing once. It didn't work. The stories just keep coming and who am I not to answer the call and write them down?
