In this episode, hosts Kimberly Todd, KC Luck, and Jamey Moody discuss the dangers of comparing yourself to others, especially within the self-publishing world. They share personal updates, including writing progress and book releases, and dive into the topic with honesty and humor.

The trio emphasizes that comparison, especially via reviews, rankings, or social media, can sap the joy from writing. They remind authors to celebrate their accomplishments—like finishing and publishing a book—and not get discouraged by others' successes. Genre popularity, audience differences, and time in the industry all influence visibility and sales, making direct comparisons unfair.

They also touch on the impact of social media, the pressure of “should” expectations, and choosing what marketing strategies work for you individually. Ultimately, they encourage listeners to write what they love, find joy in the process, and forge their own paths.

The episode wraps with a listener question about favorite tropes to write and read, and a reminder that the next episode will be released after a one-week break.
