Show Notes

You might think it strange to hear this advice from a podcast based solely on the idea of giving advice to authors, but this idea to take all advice with a grain of salt is embedded into how we operate. After all, isn’t that what writing selfishly means?

When getting advice about writing, you should never apply an “all or none” sort of attitude. Your story is not for everyone, so everyone’s opinion does not actually matter. It’s important to develop the skill of listening and applying appropriately as your story needs. We talk about how to achieve that balance.
