So it's great people like you come along and keep us entertained. I have one on pre-order...and am rereading some of your finished ones again. Ah, it's like icecream, you know what's it like, you know how it is going to go, but so delicious when you get back into the tale.....pctekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01445231624954414326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529725084811715233.post-45979838390811447732020-11-13T14:05:30.340-08:002020-11-13T14:05:30.340-08:00Women?

Some women, perhaps, also some men.<br />Don't generalise and don't stereotype. <br />Anyway I popped in to comment on Knee-Deep In Grit. The foreword says short stories are not popular, been reading that in intros for years, I own more short stories than novels.<br />I find they're like peanuts, a snack rather than a meal..but you can't stop..before you know it you've emptied the packet. I shall be buying the next collection too. Yum yum.<br />As for the definition of Grimdark...meh...who cares, I don't, I just read stories I like, happy, sad, violent, whatever...it's not a criteria I look for. Some I like, some not. <br />pctekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01445231624954414326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529725084811715233.post-36987777375909273142019-02-21T08:57:50.205-08:002019-02-21T08:57:50.205-08:00Hatemail is obviously stuff that is sent privately...Hatemail is obviously stuff that is sent privately to you. Nobody considers a review of any kind to be hatemail, unless it were mailed to them by the person who wrote it and contained personal attacks.Mark Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877925828353073272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529725084811715233.post-4174266520264606542019-02-14T08:19:32.237-08:002019-02-14T08:19:32.237-08:00It sounds a little like you let the authors (becau...It sounds a little like you let the authors (because this is a small survey) define "hate mail" themselves. So, I wonder if people didn't take into account particularly vicious reviews (online or otherwise), in person comments, or social media attacks, if they (the respondents) limited themselves to things that were sent directly to them (via mail or snail-mail). That might be skewing the results as well as the limited sample size.

As soon as someone dares to criticize them, they'll go absolutely postal. So there you go.Basta Con La Drogahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11547660384998192237noreply@blogger.com
