If you've ever questioned your ability to write a great book because of what someone else said, this episode is especially for you. Our brains want to protect us, so they take that kind of comment seriously. The C+ in English class, the nasty remark from a professor, or the well-meaning redirect of your creativity from your parents--all of it affects your confidence as a writer and your ability to become a successful author.

In this episode, I reveal why those comments have nothing to do with you and how you can get past them.

Rejection is a part of any creative process, and writing a book is no different. People will reject your book idea. They'll reject the possibility that you have what it takes to write a great book. And they'll reject your finished product, the book you've poured your heart into writing. How you deal with all this rejection will determine how successful you can be as an author. In this episode, I share how to best manage rejection and keep writing and publishing in spite of it.
