Should You Try To Win Over Your Critics?

No.  You shouldn’t give two squirts of piss about your critics.  I put crap out there.  Some love it.  Some hate it.  Good.  But do I want their opinions?  Advice?  Freakin’ feedback?  And will I so much as send an email to try and change their mind?  Nope.

Turn off comments.  Ban trolls.  Stay off social media.  Create the content you wanna create, without some anonymous twat waffle making you second-guess yourself.
