Welcome to a brand new season of After the Jump! This week, Grace Bonney talks to listeners about one of the scariest places on the internet - the comments section! As she puts it - your voice and your project deserve to be a part of the chorus of voices that exist online. Letting your voice be silenced by a few bad apples is a sad thing, and something that can and should be prevented. She explains how to handle being brought down by negative comments on your blog or bummed out by less than kind feedback! This program was brought to you by Mail Chimp. When youre putting out so much negativity...you tend to get that response in return. What you put out there is often what you get back. [11:00] --Grace Bonney on After the Jump
