Stolen from Whatever (thank you Mr Scalzi!) but completely worth reposting here.
Author explodes in comments to a bad review.
Ms Jacqueline Howett (should that be Howl-et?) certainly melts down in a spectacular manner in the comments.
John Scalzi holds it up as a lesson in what NOT to do as an author and I KNOW that Mur Laferty’s rule of “don’t be a jerk” comes into play here.
Lesson learned. I promise not to read reviews of my work should any come out (well not really…but I won’t explode when they are bad.)
Big Al follows up his review with a blog post about negative reviews which is also worth a read.
