Lulzy lulz lulz lulz and a LOL.
If you’re hankering for a good train wreck, go read this.
Synopsis: Batshit insane author (Candace Sams) forgets her tinfoil hat and completely loses it over a single one-star review, blaming her editor, the reviewer’s supposed “minions,” everyone on the internets, everyone not on the internets, so on and so forth. (I don’t think she understands the nature of lulz, as she’s convinced everyone who shows up to gawk is there at the behest of the original reviewer.) Then she claims she’s been threatened and has the FBI on the case.
Did I mention this author is behind such instant classics as Electra Galaxy’s Mr. Interstellar Feller (the book at the heart of the controversy), and – as an alternate nom de plume – the fantasy erotica piece Every Witch Way But Loose?
I realize perhaps Ms. Sams’ theory is any publicity is good publicity, so I’m helping to feed the troll by posting this, but I can’t help but share. It’s awfully gee-dee funny. Major hat-tip to Sean, to whom I owe all of tonight’s lulz.
Go check it out. You might even recognize someone who shows up on page 20.
THAT is epic.
Hsoi..ain’t it just? I posted it in my own blog under the header EPIC FAIL. I was laughing the whole time..but I’d swear my eyes were bleeding by the time I finished.
Laurel..I got the link from Mad Mike..or Michael Z Williamson for those who’ve never read him. I’m one of those people who hangs out with him on a fairly regular basis in an internet chatroom. :)
He was posting some of the responses in the chatroom. A buddy of mine says its up to 22pages as of about 220pm central time.
Correction..I just looked for myself..Twenty FOUR pages as of 255 central.
So I guess my buddy replied to the post about 120 my time.
OK, I owe you one for that. Freakin’ hilarious. I must immediately post it under the name “some folks just don’t get the internet”.
Wowww. LOL! What are the odds that LB and the Bat are one and the same?
My jaw was burnt when it fell through the floor, punched through the crust, and sank into the lava beneath. Good news is, I was tired of that look anyway …
Sent you more LOL goodness about the train wreck Laurel. *grin*
