Writers: Would you really want fame knowing all the mean things people would say about you?

[A/lie]

I don't particularly want to be famous. I want to make a difference in the world, yes, but I know making a difference is different from gracing the cover of People magazine multiple times. I really can't answer your question if I would really want that sort of fame. Like . . . I don't know. It just seems so unrealistic that I can't imagine myself anything but enthusiastic, although I'm sure I'd be stressed-out and anxious if I was famous.

BQ: Too many to count. Some about authors like J.K. Rowling and SMeyer, and some just pointlessly bashing little excerpts on Y!Answers.

BQ2: No. I might read the negative reviews experienced writers or very knowledgeable book critics would give me, but I would stay away from any internet reviews or blogs.
