you are right, of course, about the mean-spirited critiques. But there is a rather enormous spoiler in almost every review of my latest book.
I suspect I get paid rather well for what I do, considering, and having nothing to compare it to; only it is doled out in such parsimonious increments, with so many years between them, that the thrill is kind of lost on me. Short story writing is not as lucrative, but as far as instant gratification goes it is MUCH more satisfying!
