Ah ah ah, not so fast. As someone who will likely have a restraining order against me one of these days, I found out both sides of the story. A reviewer went off on a huge anti-romance author rant including the line "write, bitches, write!" (and that was the least offensive comment). MJD weighed in with her usual teasing. At which point this same person called her a cunt online. In front of the world.
MJD rebutted once again, making the reviewer look like the haterrrr she was, and then dropped the whole thing. But...MJD has a HUGE following on the LKH fan board, and someone mentioned the kerfluffle there. At which point Darla weighed in. MJD didn't ask. MJD didn't bring it up on the LKH site. MJD thanked Darla for sticking up for her and then dropped it. Again.
So please, don't blame MJD, or her books, for the actions of the deranged. Thanks!
