Bailey just posted a new message to Wranglers and I'm totally confused by it.

Join the club. Range war? I have no idea why she felt the need to post this.

I can't really tell if she's taking me to task for posting my review, or if she's upset by the discussion (which, as I commented, HARDLY qualifies as a "war"), or if she's making an oblique criticism of my motivations...I just don't know what she's trying to say.

ETA:  Okay, after further replies from Connie, it seems as if she thinks I was trying to stir things up or something.  She "hopes that Louise isn't hurt" that I've thoughtlessly exposed her to more rude comments by posting on wranglers.  To which I replied that first of all, THIS DISCUSSION IS NOT A FLAME WAR or anything close, and that I spoke to Louise about posting my review before I did so.

Man.  If she thinks that the comments being posted to my review are nasty and objectionable, she's just as sheltered as people who think Ennis and Ellery are hopelessly kinky.

I just read that piece ..
I dont know who the poster is, but maybe there is a little bit of green coming through there.. ;D

What do I know.. The only kind of drama I like is in books and films .. so I don't really want to spend time trying to figure out some of this stuff..  :)

My ego is hopelessly inflated and you can see me floating over the horizon more clearly visible than a full moon.  I don't think I have ever had so much attention paid to my writing in my WHOLE FREAKING LIFE.

thank you, fans, thank you, thank you...

*and yes I am typing the next chapter... SLOWLY*

You watch out now, you hear? On a good day we know that your ego is as big as the state of Texas. LOL

well due to my floating above the earth in an inflated sense of self importance, my productivity was a bit stunted tonight, but at last...

Okay, that does it.  No more talking about Louise.  EVAR!  We're stunting her productivity, guys!  Zip those lips!
