Dear Authors, repeat after me:

I am an author.

If I have to explain my work, I have failed.

If I have to defend my work, I have failed.

If I have to harass people into sampling my work, I have failed.

I value a reader's opinion but am not defined by it.

My work should speak for itself. If it cannot, I have failed.

My first duty is to entertain. 

My second duty is to continue to hone my craft. 

My final duty is to move on to the next project. 

I am an author.
