What went wrong with these?

I wouldn't worry about negative comments. They are an expectation especially from the Anons. I am like you in that I am a long time reader and only recently began trying my hand at writing. If the comment is particularly caustic or an ad hominem against me or another commentator, I delete it. Otherwise I just smile and move on.

Loving Wives will get you readership but also a lot of negativity. It seems a lot of commentators want to write the story or insist it progress they way they want it to. They should write their own story and submit it.
