#1 I'd ignore it because the dimwit can't spell.
#2 I work retail and deal with living breathing nasty trolls every
single day for 8 hours.(pays the henna fix) Sometimes it's not worth
it. (But yell at my employees and my claws come out sharp.)pick
battles carefully,
#3 a hug you deserve it
#4 Are you going to doubt your ability because someone doesn't like
your work? I don't think so! you are a good artist, you have lots of
support here.
#5 block their email address from emailing you almost any server that
does email can do that for you. And that handy dandy delete key.
#6 you have a whole lot of people here who will banish this nasty
troll. Don't fret.... chin up and don't let one opinion spoil
something you love to do. Bright Blessings, Christine :)
