Hi everyone.
I know a lot of you are loving this story, and that makes me so, so happy. But this afternoon I received a review from a Guest that was so ugly and hurtful, and not just to me, that I had to remove it.
I don't approve of the words that were used in the review. To say that you want a character, a fictional character, one that MJ and the other GMW Writers have worked so hard to create, to die, is beyond crossing the line for me.
You can criticize my writing, and that you don't like a certain way I am writing a character, but wishing death upon a fictional character is something I will not stand for.
Please keep yor reviews deflammatory and as polite as you can possibly make them. There is a code between readers and writers where you shouldn't expect the author to make it so everyone gets what they want. I am writing this story the way I want to, and if you don't like or appreciate that, that's fine. Just don't read my story. And do not leave a review as awful as the one left earlier.
If you did happen to see that review, I am beyond sorry you had to. I didn't have access to a computer to remove it sooner, and I really hope it didn't cause you as much grief as I went through trying to figure out where I went wrong.
The hate towards any characters and actors on this show needs to stop. Especially if you want a fourth season. I can't imagine what would drive someone to write something like what I read, and I certainly hope I don't ever get to that point.
I will not tolerate any sort of harmful message towards myself, another reader, or a character in any of my novels. And if you are going to leave an inflammatory, inappropriate review, don't do it as a Guest. To me, that is beyond cowardly. If you have a problem with my story, I would like to have the opportunity to reach back out to you.
I hope I never have to do this again.
Sorry for getting your hopes up if you thought this was another update. I love you all, the amazing, kind reviews that you all leave warm my heart and make my day a thousand times better. You guys are the reason I continue to do what I love.
XOXO, Lauren.
