I can understand how difficult it can be for a book author to gracefully accept criticism of her 'baby.' This hilarious exchange illustrates how to go completely wrong with responding though. All the more so since the criticism was over her grammar and spelling. While other potential criticisms of an author's work may be open to debate, that deficiency is cut and dried. Especially since the reviewer was able to pull examples of poor grammar right out of her text. She then compounded things by exhibiting even worse English in her blog posts, capping things off with telling numerous critics to go f*** themselves.

Adopting a Sarah Palin “Don't retreat reload” strategy may be good for the ego, but is bad for an author wishing to be taken seriously.

So anyway that's my opinion. I refudiate any claims that I am in error or that I have ever made any spelling or grammar errors in any of my posts. Shakespeare made up words too, you betch ya.
