It’s perfectly natural to look at someone else’s success and wish that it were yours instead of theirs.

But just like society has offered an alternative view to feeling blue about being single on Valentine’s Day (hello, Singles Awareness Day and Galentine’s Day!), your author career — and your overall mental state — will be better served by reframing your jealousy of another writer’s success.

Noelle Sterne can speak to this from experience, multiple times.
