What You Do Best May Not Be What You Do Best?

"Sometimes we as writers get feedback from those we love and trust about one area of writing that we succeed at. It may be description. Or great villains. Or incredible world-building. Or a great magic system. Or great scientific realism. Or a great main character. Or a perfect climax. Or anything. You get the idea.

Writers get little enough feedback that I suspect we are more likely to listen to and repeat it to ourselves than other people. And that can be a problem. If we hyper-focus on one area of writing to an extreme, it can cause us to believe that this one area of writing matters more than any other area."
