In which Skull Bearer is proud
Nov. 15th, 2011 02:08 amSo I got the worst possible review on Diaspora, someone went on and tore the story to pieces for historical inaccuracy D:
BUT instead of bursting into tears, hiding under under my bed or writing a flame back, or abandoning the fic in the face of such horror (Historian. Being called historically incorrect is like being called a child molestor, only worse because the accusations were true) I decided it was time to be grown up about these things and demand the reviewer put her money where her mouth is.
I now have a brilliant beta reader ;D
Diaspora has been re-written and is only awaiting beta approval to be reposted, with a new chapter.
(if you're reading this, you have been fantastic and it's my fault I have a brittle ego)
