When creative partners become afraid to share their collaborative work

My writing partner and I have been working on this novel for two years and we've created something beautiful together but now we're both terrified to let anyone else read it. We keep finding reasons to revise instead of submitting and I think we're both using our collaboration as a way to hide from the vulnerability of putting our work into the world.
