Let's not forget how politically diverse this group is. I find it highly ironic that they don't want authors trashing AW, and yet apparently trashing and slandering "public figures" is perfectly OK.<br /><br />Like it or not, AW is a public figure. Especially egregious them being a group of vile and vicious authors, who do far more damage to peoples reputation than Stephen King ever has in apparently trashing Twilight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7770060569501256999.post-41286869278324756752015-05-13T22:33:38.819-07:002015-05-13T22:33:38.819-07:00FYI, you probably know this but Strauss is still p...FYI, you probably know this but Strauss is still pretending all negative criticism of Absolute Write is the work of one person. She reminds me of Fidel Castro in this regard. The Tariq Aziz comparison is accurate also. She pushes her own books on there so much she can't risk the place getting trashed. If they lose, so does she. I'm not the first to point this out.Victoria's Consciencenoreply@blogger.com
