I found yet ANOTHER troll attack ongoing by the usual perps. This is rediculous! I am sick to my stomach over all of these ludicrous attacks against Indie authors. Angela Horn and Linda Hilton are leading the pack along with Nenia Campbell again. I am horrified and sad over yet another author being attacked. Do these people have any life at all other than tormenting and trying to destroy any Indie author they find on GR? Yikes!
They went in for the kill in the usual way and I truly feel bad for the author. I put his book on the to reads list as I have so many on there already besides my own work. I am seriously considering other sites for my books as GR has become increasingly toxic. It is tough to keep up with all the attacks on there.
I tried to contacting the author but it was not easy sending a message. I was wondering if he disabled it due to his horrid attack.
If I did not do my research into my own attack I would have taken it way too seriously as some of these authors might be doing without knowledge on the subject. I was horrified over what was written i almost gave up writing and it is all I have done and want to do. I feel so horrible and wish we could contact more of them to help...
It seems to me that is becomming a growing trend to troll on new and Indie authors to torment them and redicule their works and reputation as an author.
Is there anything that can be done? I have reported the matters to the sites of the attacks...It is getting to the point where Indie's will be drowned out by the trolls and their wicked and vindictive malice. I am horrified and disgusted over it all.
Part of me wants to cut and paste the wicked reviews the trolls have left on our books to paste it on their own books to see how they like it. I know I probably will NOT do that-but it looks good writing it..... I do feel a bit better as I visualized it.... I wish I was evil sometimes-but, I am not...I will instead wish for a dose of KARMA to all of those nasty "Blue Meanies!" (To Percy!lol)
