Oh this is a scream, I love it! So true:

"... you categorize everything you read into one of two categories: I can do better than that, and I'll never be that good."

I'd like to think of it positively though, I see it has work I don't have to do now that someone's done it better than I! Of course, I've been saying that since I put down my pen seven years ago. Too many good writers still to read...
