My Fashion Article Earned Me Some Haters
Clearly, I am an idiot.
I thought that writing a “light & funny” piece on the Top 5 Style DON’Ts for Hybrid Mom would be a pretty standard assignment.
I never thought I would be called out as a “bad writer, catty, judgmental and @#%^&*!” But I was.
Why am I telling you this? Partly because it has been slightly consuming me. Partly because I have never been involved in drama. People, some of these folks HATE me. Holy cow!
And I guess the biggest thing that is upsetting me is the fact that I am second guessing my writing skills. When you insult people you don’t mean to insult, well, you have to either completely dismiss them or re-evaluate your own skills. So for a woman with classic nice-girl syndrome (READ: me), this situation is completely unnerving. It is enough to make me want to drop the humor altogether.
Has anyone else out there found themselves in a similar situation of doubt? How did YOU handle it?
