It would be hard to have others judge one's artwork, for sure. But I guess it's akin to letting people I know now read my essays, my poetry or listen to my songs!

Yes...but it is a good thing Bartle stepped in. Louvina is not known for her tact. I hope you will like Part 2 of this book as well. Thanks Janice
