I would appreciate honest answers here.
I just received my first 1 star rating from another site, and honestly, I feel a bit disappointed in myself and my writing.
I know it could simply be a troll, or just someone who doesn't particularly enjoy my style of writing. However, it does cause me to take another look at my story. Questions like "should I rewrite the start?" or "did I fail to engage the reader?" come to mind.
How did you as an author overcome the negative thoughts?
As for me, though I felt down, the 1 star rating reinvigorated my passion to become a better writer and storyteller.
Just for clarity, I don't intend on dropping the story whatsoever. It will continue-on, in all its glory!
Cheers!
