reat me like a grown up, and take the story where you will without apologizing for it. Don't throw out little bones to your lesbian/bi fanbase while stabbing their fannish hopes in the back. If you don't feel like going that way, don't go that way. Just don't string us along like Rachel sometimes strings along Ivy. Have a little bit of respect for us.
I haven't read the book yet but I've gotten that reaction while reading a couple of different authors lately. Like they're either trying to pull the readers strings, freaking out because "OMG! I went into the world of slash!", or they're going to play up on the popularity slash.
I think it's childish and it's kind of a slap in the face to the fans.
