I would rather five people knew my work and thought it was good work than five million knew me and were indifferent.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People judged my work without to have listened to it.
I suppose because my work was so popular people didn't really look at it.
The people who know my work like my work. And that's great.
I'm not entangled in shaping my work according to other people's views of how I should have done it.
I like certain people's work better than my own.
People feel like they know me from the work I have done, but it's not me.
It's most beautiful thing about my work. I have reached people who I would never have known without my work.
I don't care what people think of me as a person, but I do care what people think of my work, and whether I'm investing enough into it.
Five people read my work before its ready for publication, and I solicit opinions from all of them: my wife, my agent, my editor, and my parents.
I don't care if people know who I am or if I make a ton of money, I just love my work so much.
