Quote by Jodi Picoult
Every year I tell myself that I'm not going to read any reviews and then I do. We're all human and when I read something negative it hurts. I think when you write it's part of the game, you're going to get some good reviews and some bad reviews and that's how it goes. I don't write for the reviews.
Summary
This quote reflects the struggle of the speaker, who despite intending not to, ends up reading reviews of their work. It acknowledges the vulnerability of humans, as negative reviews can be emotionally painful. However, the speaker emphasizes that writing is not about seeking validation through reviews. They acknowledge the mixed nature of reviews and accept that both positive and negative opinions are part of the process. Ultimately, the focus remains on the act of writing itself, not on the reviews received.
