Thanks for your question, Stu. The honest answer to this is: better than I used to.
I was fortunate to amass a decent number of good reviews before the first bad one came in, so I was able to put it into perspective. I don't like every book I read, so I have to accept that not everyone is going to like the books I've written.
I have come to realise a few reviews in, that a low rated review is not necessarily bad, however. If it's well written and constructive, it may well outline something the writer of said review didn't like that will actually appeal to another reader.

Hi David, Thanks for calling in on the 'White is the coldest colour' group read. Hugely frustratingly, I originally uploaded an early draft of the book to Amazon in error. If you purchased the ebook prior to 12, June, contact me at nicholl06@hotmail.com, and I'll send you the correct version. You may be interested in an honest review swop? Best wishes, John
