On this episode of “Write Where it Hurts,” Eva and Katryn discuss imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and how to tame your inner critic and use it to your advantage during revisions. When is the best time to kick that mean brain to the curb? Come for the mental health, stay for the surly/hilarious rants about basketball playoffs and 20th century dude authors.

*Content warnings: Eating disorders, anxiety, intrusive thoughts.
