EVERYONE'S A CRITIC...

My seven year old son has picked up one of my books to read for the first time. (NOT Oakdale Confidential; a children's book I wrote a few years ago).

His reaction: "Chapter one is really good, Mama. (Pause) I wouldn't want to hurt your feelings by saying: This is the worst book ever written. (Pause) That's just an example, Mama, it's really good."
