I must be 'old and tough skinned,' writer. I LOVE getting criticism. I see it as a learning tool.
I am probably desensitized to public praise and criticism as I have been exhibiting my creativity in public now for decades not only in art galleries but outdoors in public venues on tressel tables beneath awnings attached to a whispbar roof rack
I am relaxing in the writing studio today working in a novel and plan a walk to the lake for my exercise later.
I was talking to friends today about the absolute rite-of-passage for any creative person, the rejection letter.
Every published author has had to deal with rejection. But how do you get over it?
