And I know as humans we are accountable for what we say whether it is face to face or not. We all should be able to be honest. I think more down the lines of--it's not what you say; it's how you say it. <br /><br />Now putting on the aspiring writer's cap--I'm grateful for every word written in the 'spere because it make me a better writer. All stories take team to not just to build it into something presentable but to get the word out.<br /><br />Offending a blogger is bad business. Offending a reviewer is crazy unless you never want to be reviewed again. <br /><br />Think about it. :-)emaginettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324981140248692448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-23659025386567367482013-03-23T15:57:19.472-04:002013-03-23T15:57:19.472-04:00I've been missing from Blogger for a few weeks...I've been missing from Blogger for a few weeks and thankfully missed the drama.

I absolutely read the not so positive ones, because I feel it gives me a more realistic view. <br /><br />Also, I want to say I think you are brave for reading ALL of your reviews, but I think you are so much bigger than a lot of authors because you learned from them. <br /><br />And I agree. As bloggers, we are allowed to share our opinion!Midnyte Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10411332857885069319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-59759306242074365462013-03-22T20:07:34.489-04:002013-03-22T20:07:34.489-04:00Very well expressed.

I've had the kinds of reviews those authors freak out about. It's a bit hurtful, but saw no reason to get bent out of shape. I made the reader feel something and that's my goal with writing. Just not all those feelings are going to be positive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-47995197510375508562013-03-22T12:47:30.427-04:002013-03-22T12:47:30.427-04:00VERY well said, of course.

I'm trying to train myself to see it that way, preparing to publish in the near future. <br /><br />If only everyone were as level-headed as you, Marie! I'm sure when I get my first negative reviews, I'll cry and eat chocolate, but I could NEVER imagine attacking someone just for their opinion. I hope some day both authors and bloggers will see how damaging their (sometimes) thoughtless actions can be!<br /><br />Molli | <a href="http://www.onceuponaprologue.net" rel="nofollow"> Once Upon a Prologue</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473351242691599229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-8116331766873749092013-03-22T11:24:04.965-04:002013-03-22T11:24:04.965-04:00Awesome, awesome post, Marie!

I think authors should celebrate the GOOD reviews, the POSITIVE, and learn and grow from the negative. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing!Kristilyn (Reading In Winter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12401451485460760416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-9505592415534154402013-03-22T06:56:32.413-04:002013-03-22T06:56:32.413-04:00Nice blogging information.
