Episode 024: Should You Read Your Own Book Reviews?

Your book's GoodReads page is a dangerous rabbit hole – once you start falling, you might not be able to stop. Negative reviews might leave you feeling discouraged and positive reviews might leave you feeling overly-confident and complacent. So, what should you do? How can you gather constructive feedback from readers without letting their opinions influence how you feel about your writing? Authors Kate and Abbie Emmons are here to answer that question. They share their personal experience with reading reviews, and their best techniques for taking advice from readers.
