The article addresses a writer's concern about their spouse's lack of interest in their work despite repeated requests for feedback. The advice given emphasizes that family members may not be the right audience for creative work, and it's crucial not to let this affect personal relationships. The writer is encouraged to seek professional editing and engage with fellow writers for support, rather than relying on a partner for validation.
Respectfully, if you want editing, get an editor. It's important for every writer to accept that our loved ones may not be our target audience.
It's OK that you're feeling insecure, but please try not to put that at your wife's feet. It's only going to interfere with your marriage and your work.
