Develop a thick skin. Even great authors get critical reviews. The first Western Writers of America convention I attended I heard a group of people laughing and making fun of Louis L'Amour's writing. The man sold over 200,000,000 books, and they are still selling. Some people feel it is their sworn duty to trash a new book. The next person will love it.
