Take joy in the fact that it is you who creates such brilliance for other to enjoy.Prudence MacLeodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06434970647507354966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5624284166859065697.post-2923319576132155072011-06-30T16:17:40.173-07:002011-06-30T16:17:40.173-07:00I agree with you that it's totally subjective....I agree with you that it's totally subjective.

I've been at this long enough to know better than act more emotionally than logically, but I'm working on that everyday! <br /><br />Besides ... there is always something better to come along ... like the review just posted on Amazon for my Whips novel :-) Life moves on ...Author and Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06275313084319285562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5624284166859065697.post-48507305932250491732011-06-23T19:44:20.466-07:002011-06-23T19:44:20.466-07:00I'm sorry about your negative review.
