It was awkward to read one's own novel because the plot, characters, dialogue, and other elements of the novel did not match one's expectations and ideas, or did not match one's existing literary experience and knowledge. This discrepancy may cause discomfort, making the author feel embarrassed, confused, or disappointed. In addition, the author might have doubts about his own work during the writing process and feel that his writing was not good enough, which would lead to embarrassment. However, this kind of awkwardness was not universal. Every author had a different writing style and level, so feeling awkward about one's work was a subjective feeling, not an objective evaluation. To overcome this awkwardness, authors could write more to improve their writing skills and experience. At the same time, they could accept the opinions and suggestions of others to continuously improve their own works. In addition, authors could also try to shift their attention from their own works to other areas, such as watching movies or reading other works, to reduce excessive attention and self-doubt.
