Answer 1

Look for specific places to improve the story and address the comments made by the reviewer.

This approach allows you to acknowledge the feedback while still retaining your voice and vision for the story. By focusing on specific areas of improvement, you can make targeted changes that enhance your work without needing to completely overhaul it or abandon your original ideas. Consider the reviewer's comments thoughtfully and see how they can guide your revisions to create a stronger narrative.
