If your practice is already to avoid the post-publication reviews, we certainly aren't going to try to talk you out of it.
But even if that is your approach, we will try to persuade you to read a post from author and audiobook narrator Julia Whelan on how to process negative comments in reviews and on social media.

Check out her advice for writers on handling negative comments at Writer Unboxed.
