I’m experiencing the same thing, as a young writer. We’ve all heard “write what you know” chanted like a mantra in writing classes- it’s a cliche but it’s true. I like that you relabel the idea as “staying true to you,” which frames it less as a limitation and more so a tactic of honesty. Excited to read your next post!
