I don't think I've told this story in here.
Many years ago, I belonged to an online crit group. One fine day I posted the first 3 chapters of the earliest version of my horror that's getting pubbed in May.
One of the group members who turned out to be an evangelical pastor with major issues re: strong women in fiction sent me a private crit. One entire page, single-spaced, with subheads in bold and certain comments in red. He ripped my writing, my characters, my plot, and my Biblical scholarship (which isn't too shabby, what with the ex-nun thing and all). He concluded that my writing was evil, that it would harm "baby Christians" and he hoped the book never got published. Signed it, With love from your brother in Christ.
After I picked my jaw up off the floor and blew my nose--yeah, he made me cry, the bastid--I blew him in to the group moderator, attaching the crit. The moderator enlightened me as to this guy's issues and blocked him from seeing any more of my work.
That was a pre-pubbed crit, which shouldn't have the same sting. But once eviscerated, twice shy. After my lapse in 2011, the only reviews I look at are the ones my publishers tell me to read. I do want to keep my publishers happy.
