Wednesday Writer's Corner on Short Hiatus
The Wednesday Writer’s Corner: Responding to Reviews
Now some of you
are already published, and many of you who keep on trying will eventually be
published. So, this week’s advice
applies to your situation after you’ve been published. For published writers, this may be one
of the most essential pieces of survival advice you’ll ever receive.

Negative Reviews
Never . . . never
ever . . . ever ever, publicly respond to a negative reader review. Never ever email someone who’s given
you a negative reader review. For
God’s sake don’t read a negative review on Amazon and then click on “comment”
and tell the reviewer (in public) what a complete idiot he/she must be to give
your book a bad review.
Yikes!
