1. I had that very thought! Because before replying to the anon comment seemed almost an unsure thing, now I'm still waffling between replying and doing a mass thank you, because surely other people have figured out the whole tracking an anon comment thing?


2. Hmm. I think we're backing into a lot of the "It's okay out there but that was one of our own." Which to me, I never really bought into the whole thing.

From where I've stood, there is a perceived level of emotion that is BAD coming from the author. That is, she meant to hurt/maim/eviscerate. And while that may or may not be the case, I sort of wonder if everyone really thinks the world of literature is fully of fuzzy bunnies and puppies.

I'm fairly sure this perceptionis tied up in how she presented some things versus other, etc. But I won't get into that here.

But it does feel like a revisit of the permissions argument once more, just from a different angle.
