For some reason, I want to go out and buy all the Anita Blake books... Shred the last few books into itty-bitty pieces and then take them to a book signing...

Empty the shreds on her desk, slap her round the face:

Tell her to grow up, take notice of her fans and fire her toadies.

It would be a waste of money, yes... but the satisfaction of shredding and slapping would outweigh the cost.

And maybe, just maybe, seeing her precious words all over the table (probably making more sense than when they were on book formation) would wake her up a bit.

Say aye if you want to do the same...


A veritable conga-line of shredding and slapping...

I think that the worst possible thing that could happen to LKH (in her own mind) would be if she was ignored, her books didn't sell, and people didn't show up for signings. Fantasies of slapping her and dumping shredded bits of books in front of her would only fuel *her* fantasies that everyone is secretly jealous and that she needs bodyguards to protect herself from teh hate.

Leather corset clad bodyguards at that.

And I agree, ignoring would work much better. Even though people shredding her books and slapping her is a much more amusing mental image, we should think of the poor bodyguards...

Question... would the bodyguards be manly proper bodyguards, or would the presence of LKH have reduced them to long-haired, personality-lacking pretty-boys?

*Giggles at the snarkage.*

I agree with the above, btw. Ignoring her might just make her realize what everything else doesn't.

That, or not buying her books en masse...

... okay, now I need to know. Did she REALLY show up somewhere with leather-corseted bodyguards?

Please say no. I find I have a shred of respect left for her. It's on the respirator, but it's alive.

[tsula.livejournal.com]

yeah, she has in the past.

[klmorgan.livejournal.com]

When, exactly? Do you know?

check out the link in this entry (http://www.livejournal.com/community/lkh_lashouts/10928.html), plenty of honest to goodness romance authors snarking LKH over some Romance convention she appeared at.

buying all the books would just slam more money into her pockets!
if you wanna fuck with an author try piracy.
it's the worst thing you can do to them.

*lol*

I agree. Didn't we make a pact a while back that once Danse Macabre comes out, we'd all come together (virtually) and not buy it? I personally can't wait.

How about downloading her book, editing it in its entirity (with added snarkage), and posting it up on some site? I'd read it then! ~_^

i am SO with you!

add the snarkage, edit out references to the ardeur, micah's penis, and jean-claude's frank-n-furter wardrobe!
