Lyle,

When you lose that thin skin and realize that a critique of your songs is not a personal attack on you, the moment is liberating. I say bring on the honesty because there is generally room for improvement somewhere and somebody else's vision might be clearer than mine.

Glad you're in a good place in your life, it's the best time to just go for it. Success for me is being able to give up my day job and earn a living from my music and I am not about to get older and not at least TRY to get there.

Cheers,

Rachel
