When to Ignore Your Editor

33 min27 augusti 2025

Every author needs editorial feedback. But not all feedback is good.

If you accept every edit, you risk losing your voice and writing something bland. If you ignore all edits, you risk writing something sloppy that readers won’t buy. So how do you know which edits to take and which to toss?

In this week’s episode, you’ll learn:

  • 7 “Bewares” to help you sort out good and bad editorial suggestions
  • Whether AI or human editors are helpful or hurtful
  • How to develop good tastes that guide your writing voice


Editing is supposed to sharpen your writing, not smother your voice. Listen in or read the blog version to find out when you should (and shouldn’t) ignore feedback.
