We shouldn't be judging people.
But it is very much the case when you're in the writing world that that happens and you hear the conversation, especially at book festivals.
But you hear it and you also hear writers talk about themselves in that way.
Like I went to Anna McCarrick recently, which is an artist's retreat.
I've been there twice.
And I heard that like Marion Keys would never apply to go there because she doesn't feel that she would fit in there.
That's not a place for someone like her.
I'm like, she's one of our most best selling authors.
People love her books.
And yet she would judge herself in that in that level of where you fit in terms of being an artist.
Yes.
And for me, I think if you're producing stories and they're accessible and enjoyable and people like them, then you're definitely an artist and a writer.
It was always tough for me to write academically.
So like I'm extremely successful as an academic writer.
There's judgment there as well.
So we get ranked.
So where you publish your books, there's rankings attached to it and them rankings are public to people.
And so they have impact factors, which means how much people read them and the level of impact.
And like I've published in the most impactful journals, which it makes me apparently a brilliant academic.
But writing for academia always was really difficult for me.
