Are you ever afraid to write?

Am I ever afraid to write? I am not afraid of the act of writing, it is not like it is going to harm me.  I usually write what comes to my mind, in a simple way.  I'm not afraid to write essays for school, even though they usually bore me to tears.  I guess I am afraid to write creatively sometimes.  I get nervous that what I think is good, creative, maybe funny, or maybe meaningful writing will not be perceived this way.  I usually shy away from creative writing because I don't think of myself as a very creative person and I guess you could say that I am scared to take a risk with my writing. The judgement that would be received after someone read my creative reading is enough to make me shy away from trying to add some more personality to certain things that I write.
