I know the grabbles well. We're on a first name basis. I'm going to try the praise letter - it feels in keeping with how you discovered the other person had allowed a number of the things you were doing to pass him by. Just goes to show how we craft our own narrative of failure thanks to the grabbles when it may not match other peoples' perspectives at all. Creative post!

Great advice across the board. As for feeling "fractured", a doubting writer is an accurate writer.

I love "Write yourself a praise letter." What a practical way to reframe.
