Author's blog should be about their books, books they have read and loved. About commenting on the blog you mentioned. My advice - don't bother. My dear husband had a rather rude saying but it applies to getting involved in commenting on a horrible blog. Bill said, "Don't get into a pissing match with a skunk."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-75768858352104295392009-01-12T13:22:00.000-05:002009-01-12T13:22:00.000-05:00I couldn't agree more with all of you!

Very good points. <BR/><BR/>Being negative is contagious, and I think no matter what kindness or professionalism we tossed at them in response was ignored or went right over their heads. <BR/><BR/>Flaming someone apparently makes you feel better about yourself...snicker. <BR/><BR/>I say, why aren't you writing if you’re so worried about your career? <BR/><BR/>Good job, ladies. Let's keep it positive, hold our heads high, and keep writing exceptional books with our wonderful editor!<BR/><BR/>Taylor TrystAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-23789706104244241942009-01-12T13:16:00.000-05:002009-01-12T13:16:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-26239502655529206392009-01-12T11:09:00.000-05:002009-01-12T11:09:00.000-05:00This same rabid group erupts every so often with t...This same rabid group erupts every so often with these same complaints and accusations.
