I love Lauren Destefano!!!!! She's the best writer XD

Every time I start something new I'm always terrified I'm not being original and can always find similarities between what I write and other peoples work. Do you have any advice to fight through this?

Write the thing anyway.

why do people always go to far?

Nothing has changed. Nothing will ever change now.

Do not discourage children from reading because you feel they are reading the wrong thing. Fiction you do not like is a route to other books you may prefer. And not everyone has the same taste as you.

Say it loud, and say it proud!

I'm sorry :(

are negative reviews the worst thing that can ever happen to authors?

No.

So when I was 21, my dad died suddenly. We were the only ones home and I came downstairs and found him. To this day, any time I hear a crash in another room, my first thought is that someone just dropped dead and I’m about to go and find them. We’re pretty sure it was an embolism or a massive heart attack caused by existing health issues. Later that day, I got a call ON HIS PHONE, from the hospital. When I answered, some dead-voiced woman claiming to be the hospital grief counselor boredly asked me, as though she had better things to do, if I was willing to donate his eyes. She said to make a decision right then because there was a limited window of time before they were no good.

So, write whatever negative reviews you want. I’ll be okay. Negative reviews aren’t even on the scale of worst things that have ever happened to me.
