I have been surfing the wild world of words and am amazed at the catfights out there--between author and reader, and reader and reader. It's gotten so bad that even Romantic Times magazine had a column about it, called Authors Behaving Badly. Here is an ARTICLE to get your gossip juices flowing.
Then there are readers who are screaming, umm, blogging about their need to be worshipped by authors, like this one reader's UBER RANT, in which she would "love to be in the place of a dog sled driver with these bitches as the team, my whip held high and ready. Instead of mush, I would scream WRITE! WRITE BITCHES, WRITE! Using my whip to lash some sense into their ungrateful hides." THAT is a direct quote.
This particular post started a snit-fit cat-smackdown of the ages between uber-author Mary Janice Davidson and this...umm...reader and then every other uber-author and uber-blogger began to blog about it and...and... and...there is CACOPHONY out there in the wild Internet!!! This uber-roofer is thinking of bringing her ear-plugs home from work!
So why are you blogging about it then, you stupid bitch-roofer, I can just hear that ranting reader growling from way over that corner. Why don't you effing shut up and effing write like a good little bitch? Well. I actually have a solution. It's a pretty cool one too. No cat-fighting involved. Not even the calling of names!
Click on Arrow to stay here and watch:
You see (pun intended)? No blood drawn! And the loser has to go home and write, write, write. So there.
;-)
What do y'all think of my solution? And aren't you glad your favorite uber-spy just shows you nekkid veges and nekkid men? ;-)

Yikes. Scratching and biting. LOL man, some people. *shaking head* I've never read Ms. Joy's work and I have a feeling that I won't be any time soon. But I was reading about the fan who emailed Joy's publisher wanting to get a book out sooner so much that she got a free ARC. That has possibilities. Think'd work for YOUR publisher? You know just in case someone were to do that :) ~Athena
Hey Lisa! Missed you! Good to see you having fun, though, away from the countryside ;-).
Athena,
If you like sexy paranormal/futuristics, Dara Joy's Matrix series is very good! Many readers still await Traed's story.
