Sometimes you have to work with others to get the job done right. In publishing, the same rule applies.
Playing nicely with others, not engaging with bad reviewers, being polite and grateful to all fans-these are things that are essential to keeping a positive reputation as a writer. After your book is published, the sales continue only if you have a positive reputation. Being good to everyone who engages you along the way is the simple solution to keeping that going.
