LOL Oh definitely, always always be bold and firm with me. Very early in my life, my mom read the Anne of Green Gables series out loud to me, so I learned at a young age that the writing life is full of rejection after rejection. I knew that when I stated that a full-time novelist was what I wanted to be, and when I declared as a Creative Writing major at Purdue. Through four years of writing and critique classes, I could never understand other peoples' thin skins (though I tried to be as sensitive as possible), because we weren't there to be told we were awesome, we were there to be told how to be better. LOL So anyway, I'm definitely not afraid of constructive criticism. :) *hug*
