And for a book labeled as an expletive mess it's odd it could be edited at all.
She is toast. What option did she have, but to go and "revise" the books, given everything that occurred? Does anyone here think that ANY of this would have happened, if the tweet she "liked" was from Jon Stewart? Of course not.

(I have reason to believe that the cancelled contract is very real, by the way.)

Everything that occurred in this mess was simply wrong. The RWA was wrong--twice--and so was everything else.

I have to wonder just how many RWA members have written novels set during the Salem Witch Trials, that confidently and smugly told themselves that this could never happen today, who in turn participated in the Twitter Witch Trials against Davis?
