On writing and feeling like a dummy

I am not Rachel Pollack.

I’m also not Mary K Greer.

Those are the first names that come to mind whenever anyone thinks of Tarot. They are both icons, with a slew of brilliant books between them. Most of those books sit on my shelves. If you love Tarot, I am pretty sure you have something from either one in your collection.

When the idea of writing a book first began to tickle my brain, I found myself getting frozen feet. Who am I to write about Tarot when the greats have already done the best work? What could I add to the topic? I also started getting hyper-focused on this thought: I am not smart enough.
