There are a lot of people out there who are going to tell you what they think of your book.
Critique groups. Beta readers. Agents. Editors. Reviewers. And, of course, readers!
Sometimes we seek out feedback: when we hire a pro editor for a critique of our finished draft, for example.
Or perhaps we share our pages with a trusted circle of fellow writers, asking for their notes on how to improve.
What to do with these notes is a sticky question for most writers. What if we don’t agree with them? Should we trust ourselves, or our note-givers?
Getting feedback is also emotionally difficult. Nobody likes to be told their work needs work!
And yet taking notes is all part of a writer’s job.
This subject is top-of-mind for me today because I’m in the middle of revising my next book.
I have a detailed editorial letter in hand from my editorial team. I have a deadline, of course. So how do I approach this revision?
Today we’ll talk about how to sort through the feedback you get on your work and come up with an action plan that makes you feel eager to dive in.
➡️ We’ll also talk about what to do with the emotional discomfort of feedback. If you can’t get past that, your revision process is going to be hamstrung from the start.
