Listen to them, I say, take on board what they are saying. Some of the criticism may be valid, some may not, but what better way to learn your craft than to listen to those who point out things you do that may not work? Regardless, people who have taken the time to read your work and comment on it deserve your respect, whether they have liked it or not. (less)

As the great philosopher Frederick Mercury once opined... "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?"
