You do realize this means war.
Pop Quiz:

You are R. Malone, a new author who has a book out that is predominately getting reviews in the four to five star range when someone gives your book a review a one or two star. Do you. . .




BONUS WANKERY IN SCREENCAP FORM!!!


Credit given when credit is due: Copypasta directly from sf_drama




ETA:

Edited in some screencaps of my own, and also: HOLY COW WAT. HIDDEN AGENDAS!!



ETA AGAIN:
R. Malone's original message to the reviewer/blogger, as found in a cached search! (sceencap coming if LJ WOULD UPLOAD THE CAP ALREADY. JEEZ.) YAY.
Hey Cyndy,

Why did you downrate Crimson Rose to one star on here and Amazon when you had originally rated it two stars last week? Did you read the book again and decide you hated it more? If so, then why did you read it again? I see you also deleted the comment where you stated that you ‘wished to read the sequel when it comes out, since you read an excerpt and it sounded good.’

I’m finished putting up with jealous bitches like you, Cyndy. I guess if this first book goes to shit thanks to bitches like YOU, that’s perfectly fine. I don’t give a fuck anymore, I really, really don’t.

So far, however, your bullshit hasn’t put a tiny dent in CR’s sales.

Robin


LOL, so many screencaps, IDEK. I almost want to buy Crimson Rose to make my eyes bleed like I know they will but skjdsdjfkhjdfhskdfjhsd LOLOLLLLLLL FOREVER. NO SORRY TO SAY.



MOAR ETA:
Saucy, rawr.

++Sauciness via Weepingcock.



LATE NIGHT ELECTRIC BOOGALOO EDIT:
LOL


I SWEAR IT'S THE WANK THAT KEEPS ON GIVING:

Well, duh, the only reason why everyone hates this book is because everyone jumped on the hate bandwagon. Also, Hitler.

More deleted/screencaping fun.

Some clarification, and burn indeed.


EDIT, YET AGAIN:
And what's a wank without sock-puppetry? God I love this woman. Keep up the crazy, please. The lols are great. Where we're been mentioned.

I've only skimmed the first few paragraphs. Thanks to having read more than my fair share of crappy fanfic, I can deal with the lousy grammar and punctuation. But the superabundance of words just kills me--so many words, so few of them doing any useful work. And her descriptions are terrible:

After her green eyes briefly roamed around the darkness...

So her eyes are off wandering around the neighborhood on their own? Little orbs, rolling around out there in the "vast darkness"?

Or maybe she has more than one pair of eyes, and the green ones get to go roaming while the hazels have to stay in their jar? Or maybe she's an alien, with has two pairs of eyes in her head; the brown ones stay put while the green ones carry out reconnaissance and report back?

Yeah, IDK. Girlfriend's got free-range eyeballs, that's all I know.

He was dressed peculiarly from head to toe in solid ebony...

I guess it would be pretty damned peculiar to see a guy wearing a head-to-toe ensemble made of wood...

It's not the worst-written piece of fiction I've ever seen. But it's still terrible, and R. Malone's not doing herself any favors by pushing her amateur work into print and trying to get people to buy it. She's not going to be the next Stephenie Meyer--she's not even at that low level of competency as a writer. That she went with PublishAmerica is fitting; they've raised empty flattery of untalented, immature, and incompetent writers to a high art form.

How would he even walk in that?
