If you have a story to tell, tell it. Don't let others stand in your way or dissuade you. That said, also listen to the people that you ask for help. Your beta readers and editors are reading it from a different perspective than you and they want to add to your story to help you succeed. If there is something you don't agree with, talk it out. Never give up on your dreams.
