Last night’s live online Twitter chat with E.L. James (#AskELJames) turned into some Fifty Shades bashing. As Entertainment Weekly puts it, “E.L. James’ Twitter Q&A didn’t really go as well as planned.”
Before all that broke loose, James responded to a question about plans for other romance novels by saying,
I’ve written a new book and am halfway through another. Both romances. Not sure when I will finish them. :)

I think the whole thing is really mean spirited. Sure, you don’t have to love the book or think it’s a great piece of writing, but attacking the author in this manner is disrespectful.
