and don't get offended when people say it's shit. It's free honest advice you can choose to take or just ignore.
Read it out loud.
Does it fulfill the thought you were trying to convey? Does it kinda "click" with you?
Internal validation is best imo. Naturally, not everybody is going to like any piece of work. Literary classics took a fucking long time to gain their """"objectively good"""" rep.

Is it good?
Brandon Sanderson's 2016 lectures on youtube are pretty good for any writing in general, I think he about covers every aspect.
Reading good stuff helps as well, but the key is to keep writing and try to get people to read your stuff. With online sites it's eas(ier) to get eyes on your stuff with sites like scribophile but your work is most likely shit.

There is no such thing as good writing. Only writing that people think is good.
