Oh my, has she been being naughty, too? What a pity. I actually rather enjoy her fluffy little undead novels. They're funny.

If you want a writer who does NOT abuse the critics, even, check out Kim Harrison. She POLITELY replies to everyone in her site's guest book, even those who are somewhat less than glowing in their comments. She may not agree, but she's POLITE, and mature.

Something apparently lacking in much of the rest of the sub-genre. *Anne Rice, LKH, now Mary Janice Davidson? COUGH*
