Gethsemane Butler

You won't believe this, but I reviewed Gethsemane Butler's Salvation with this on her deviantart account.

"I don't really know if you intended this, but the idea that Victoria and Sweeney Todd marry each other is slightly disturbing, considering the fact that Benjamin Barker was a father figure to Victoria, when she was young. I am sure you are aware that Judge Turpin had a similar plan, regarding Johanna, that failed. The whole point of this subplot was to establish that the Judge is a pervert. By establishing such a relationship between Victoria and Sweeney Todd, you have unintentionally transformed him into the man he despises the most."

She just deleted my comment and kicked me off of her friends' list (I was trying to keep an eye on her, in case she rewrites Sins of the Father).  Honestly, what is with this woman?!  If some stranger took the time to criticize my story, I'd be flattered.  Worst case scenario: constructive criticism can help you become a better writer.  The only review I got for Sylar's Obsession was this.

"This sucks!  Sylar's not gay!"

Yes, because we all know how important his sexual orientation is to his characterization.  Honestly, it's not like I made Jin gay.  I have yet to see a story where that happens, but if it does, I will personally hunt the author down and kill her.  Anyway, that's not my point.  My point is that the woman's acting like a baby, and she honestly believes that she can write original fiction?!  I'm tempted to read her vampire story so I can see how incredibly awful it is.  Good news is that if I post the first chapter of the sporked Sins of the Father on deviantart, I don't have to worry about her and her minions coming after me.
