Welcome to “The Scribe Vibe with Janae”! In this episode, we tackle one of the most challenging aspects of the writing journey—handling rejection and criticism. Discover the importance of learning to manage these experiences and how they can ultimately lead to personal and professional growth.
We’ll delve into the different types of rejection and criticism writers face, from personal and professional to creative endeavors, and explore the psychological impacts, including emotional responses, effects on self-esteem, and imposter syndrome.
Learn practical tips for analyzing criticism objectively, seeking clarification, setting realistic expectations, and celebrating small wins. We’ll also discuss the importance of building a robust support system, including trusted friends and mentors, professional support, and online communities.
Find out how to turn rejection into opportunity by using feedback for improvement, finding alternative paths, and being inspired by famous success stories of authors who overcame rejection. Additionally, we’ll cover strategies for maintaining mental health through self-care practices, mindfulness, meditation, and positive self-talk.
Stay tuned for our exciting interview with Jason P. Crawford about his fantasy novel “Dragon Princess.” We’ll explore the world of Aetheria and the challenges faced by High Princess Amalia. Don’t miss next week’s episode, where we’ll discuss the process of getting published.
