I wrote today! Again, it was only a couple hundred words, but the next section of the chapter is done, and that should do it for the "tricky" parts. The next section is one I have been dreaming of writing for ages, and I already have extensive notes on it, so I'm excited. If I get time today, I'll dive in, but I'm traveling tonight, so may have to wait until I arrive and am settled.

I read my reviews and make note of my likes and kudos, but I would still write even if no one read my stuff, because in the long term, I'm writing for me. If I get a negative review, I usually don't respond to it, especially if it is not constructive. I've had constructive criticism reviews that have actually helped me but hateful reviews are not even worth fussing over!
