Haha, thanks Hunter! At first it didn't feel so good but then, every author gets them so why bother? Best of luck with your book! :D
Hiya, Astrid. Thanks for connecting. I loved your tweet: "First bad review of new book. I feel complete now. :)" Good one. My book's only been out for two weeks. Soon enough, I'll be able to feel complete too. :)
