What rubbish those quotes are from the article. If it were just an anti-fan going on a tirade about Rowling it'd be one thing, but an author complaining that Rowling shouldn't write in a particular genre, with apparent earnestness and jealousy seething through? It's rather pathetic.
This could hurt the author more than help her, and I have a feeling she'll probably probably be very grateful for Goodreads' controversial policy that doesn't allow discussion of an author's actions in reviews, though from a very quick perusal of some of her works there I already see backlash comments, heh.
