There is an old saying Becca, "You can please some of the people most of the time, but never all the people all of the time." Every writer who has ever had anything published has had their critics just as (traditionally) every writer has gotten rejection slips prior to that 1st sale. I remember seeing a short video of Stephen King the other night on youtube and he said he'd started writing and sending out his work at age 18 and he was around 20 when he made that 1st sale. Of course with epublishing via places like Smashwords and Amazon that doesn't necessarily hold true any more, but I bet even now the critics aren't unanimous in their praise of any writer. Some things never change.
