I'm having kind of a sad night and I was wondering what you tell yourself when someone really criticizes your work? I'm not talking in a 'you need to work on your anatomy/shading/whatever' kind of a way but a real good thrashing. I have to admit that when someone really tears into me I don't really know how to cope with it. It's really hard to admit that I'm not made of stone and the things people say do hurt. I try to not over analyze what people say but when they're making it clear that they really dislike me or my work, it really stings.
A friend of mine found this article for me awhile back: [link] It's was written for people breaking into the literary field but it always makes me feel better reading it. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who gets chewed out but then I have to remember that we all do at some point.
Here's another good one I just found on professional criticism: [link] Anyway, I just thought I'd shared and see if it would get me out of this crummy mood I'm in!
I just want you all to know that this isn't a passive aggressive journal aimed at anyone. I tend to swing this way from time to time. Thanks for letting me share!

Someone who just tells you you suck, giving no reason and no constructive criticism, usually isn't worth your time. If they're just going to be nasty about it then I like to think their opinion doesn't count XD
Don't take it to heart, because I really look up to you and I know there are lots of people who enjoy your comic and your art works c:
Besides, you do your work because you love it, and someone else not liking it shouldn't change that for you c:

I've been following TH for a while now, loving the story but also liking to see the natural progression of your drawing style. You're good, girl. Keep like that and one day you'll be unstoppable.
