Hey Laura, I would NOT let the comments of a few rude idiots stop me from writing what I want to write. When this happened to me, I simply stopped reading comments religiously like I used to. I peek at a comment only 4 or 5 times a week - NO MORE. I write and imagine the responses are all good and I'm a happy camper! I still comment on other stories, but I'm free from the trolls1 :-)
