Discover why your fear of negative feedback might be the biggest thing holding you back creatively, and how embracing both praise and criticism is the key to unlocking truly resonant, impactful work.
The amazing Becca Syme often mentions how one of the writers she has coached says (paraphrased), "If only I had known how many 1-star reviews it would take for me to get to a 7-figure income, I'd have wanted those poor reviews to come faster!"
I absolutely love your style of writing, Russell. Thank you for expressing these truths so beautifully with so much heart and soul!
Just what I needed to read today. I am so glad you framed fear in this way. Once I can accept that good or bad comments and people are part of releasing a novel than moving forward feels less sticky. Thanks for saying what I've been feeling.
This resonates so much with me!
