Criticism Sucks: Christie Stratos Shares How to Ignore Harsh Criticism
Christie Stratos, author of the Dark Victoriana Collection, just shared her thoughts on creativity and ignoring criticism. Not only is Christie one of my new favorite authors (Anatomy of a Darkened Heart is freakin' awesome by the way!), she's incredibly insightful when it comes to writing. Her blog chronicles everything from harnessing creativity to handling naysayers. What I love about her post on criticism is that she clearly defines useful feedback/constructive critique vs. destructive criticism. She empowers us to help each other by not tearing each other down. She also has some motivational pictures to build you up and encourage you to be a champion for others. Enjoy!
