True, true. It just seems... somehow wrong that they are able to contribute things like that to the world while behind it all they're just... jerkfaces. I feel like it should bleed through the work somehow so that I can tell, you know? But then, maybe if I'd been in a different frame of mind and looking for it I would've seen it.

/nod Yes, very interesting! I don't think I'll ever buy a new OSC book but I do think I'll keep reading his work when I can get it by other means. Similarly, I will probably never read anything ever written by L. Ron Hubbard (unless someone whose opinion I value comes along and tells me that such-and-such book by him is SOOOOO good and awesome that I simply cannot miss out on it- which has yet to occur).

More amusing still, the "moral guardians" are even touchier about - of all things- magic in books than they are bout sex or facts about sexuality.

I'm shocked our public library is allowed to still have a fantasy section.

It was pretty terrible. The most hysterical result of it all was that the library ended up removing Catcher in the Rye from the floor, completely without a sense of irony to it.

If the McF (the groups' informal leader) ever finds out about Mercedes Lackey, we're all in a lot of trouble.
