Just ….wow. An author doesn’t like that someone left him a 1-star review on GoodReads.

Authors, it is not bullying when readers give you one-star reviews. http://t.co/RGSHQWKNkq via @AnneBillson

An excerpt from early in the thread (I’m still reading through, my jaw keeps dropping):

I hope it does someone good then. Passively or actively condoning an individual to leave a 1 Star review on someone’s work and for that author to just accept it is WRONG. It’s like telling someone who just got hit to keep quiet and accept it because it comes with the territory.
