Anonymity

So I've been thinking whether or not it's a good idea to remain completely anonymous. As I was talking to a good friend, he came up with good arguments about why I should start telling people about it, which are mainly:

1- Criticism is good, and I need it to imporve
2- How do I expect to be a writer if I don't want anyone to read my writing

My counter arguments would of course be:

1- I lack the self confidence
2- I fear rejection
3- I don't want to control what I write

Thinking of them now, my reasons seem to be driven mainly by fear, which is really the reason why I started this blog in the first place. To face my fears. The question is, will I ever get over them?
