To self-review
Definition
To write or create a review or critical analysis of one's own literary, artistic, or scientific work; to publicly, consciously, and self-referentially evaluate the value, structure, or impact of one's own creation. In cultural journalism and modern digital media, the act of self-reviewing is used either as an intentional exercise in self-irony and aesthetic reflexivity or as a masked or transparent self-promotion strategy to attract public attention.
