Don’t go.
Dear mister Gaiman, I'm a big fan of your work. However, I'd like to sort of put my heart out there to ask a question for a friend. She wants to be a writer and puts her work online but doesn't get a lot of readers. She didn't mind, but someone recently wasn't very kind about a play she wrote. It was the first review she got and it wasn't as much a review as that it was a mean comment, but it hurt her because the subjects she picks are often personal. How do you personally deal with bad reviews?
I’ll quote myself here:
It does help, to be a writer, to have the sort of crazed ego that doesn’t allow for failure. The best reaction to a rejection slip is a sort of wild-eyed madness, an evil grin, and sitting yourself in front of the keyboard muttering “Okay, you bastards. Try rejecting this!” and then writing something so unbelievably brilliant that all other writers will disembowel themselves with their pens upon reading it, because there’s nothing left to write. Because the rejection slips will arrive. And, if the books are published, then you can pretty much guarantee that bad reviews will be as well. And you’ll need to learn how to shrug and keep going. Or you stop, and get a real job.
i jus,, love my bf a lot and idk where to put my feelings or how to squash them into a managable medium sized cube so that I can SLEEP so fk
The doctors tell me that the cordyceps, the growth inside her, has somehow mutated. It’s why she’s immune. Once they remove it, they’ll be able to reverse engineer a vaccine. A vaccine.
this is amazing we need more
remember that catfish episode where she catfished her cousin bc he called her a fat ass kelly price 3 years ago
You know what else she did, she bloody did a horror movie plot twist, where she called the show to investigate whomever was cat fishing her cousin, so basically everyone that they were investigating to the cat fish was a red herring by her, leading to the climax of the episode where it was revealed that she was the one cat fishing him lol
