@PaperbackRocker. Email me at bowiefan1970@live.com. Thanks for
listening! The show notes are as follows: Thinking about internet
trolls made me remember the Fremont Troll in Seattle. It is a huge
sculpture under the Aurora Bridge, clutching a Volkswagen. It has a
Wiki page if you want to see it. The car has a California license
plate, and that's probably on purpose. My character in 'Blue
Whiskey' encounters trolls, and I tell how he handled them. I talk
about a click-bait article on the Huffington Post by a woman named
Lynn Shepherd who says that JK Rowling should be satisfied with her
success and stop writing, especially in the crime genre. This woman
is committing career suicide if you know anything about the passion
of Harry Potter fans. She says all other writers are envious of JK
Rowling's success. I'm not. This woman says that JK Rowling's books
'suck the air' out of publishing. That's life, lady. Deal with it.
Most people like Spiderman better than Marcel Proust. Accept it.
This lady is a snob, and if everyone liked the snobby things she
likes, she wouldn't like them anymore. That's the 'hipster
paradigm', as coined by yours truly. Rowling came out with a
thriller called 'The Cuckoo's Calling' under a pseudonym, and once
the word got out, it sucked the air out of everything, too. This
woman hates that, too. What a surprise. Stephen King wrote books
under the pseudonym of Richard Bachman, and that lasted a lot
longer than Rowling's secret. Next, I read a couple recent reviews
of that lady's book. Surprise! She's getting attacked by Harry
Potter fans via one-star Amazon reviews. I read a couple reviews of
my book, 'Band On The Run', by people who didn't read the book. I
rarely comment positive or negative any more due to the possibility
of offending someone who might attack me through fake reviews. I
mention an article that says indie music is cooler than indie
books, but I'm saving that one for a future episode. 28 years ago,
'Master of Puppets' came out, and it changed my life. I didn't like
it at first, because it was so different than the things like Guns
n Roses I was listening to. I talk about the Big Four of thrash and
which one I didn't listen to very much.
