In this episode, Mike and Michelle discuss: 
A love of reading
Taking constructive feedback and criticism
Everything is a jolt
 
Key Takeaways: 
Reading stimulates your creativity significantly. Being a bookworm is essential for becoming a successful writer.
Constructive feedback and criticism is not meant to make you feel bad about yourself; rather, it's intended to inspire you to work harder and develop your craft.
Being disturbed or pushed extremely hard gives you an unsettling feeling as a writer. However, it provides you with additional possibilities to hear people's reactions to your work, whether positive or bad.
 
"Write more than you did. Stop dreaming about being a writer and be a writer. Write everyday and work really hard." - Michelle Huneven
