I will never understand.
Honestly.
And this debate has intensified in the last few weeks--boys against girls--there are new players, and, while I *SO* appreciate the female authors and others who are standing up for equality, I haven't felt the need to weigh in. . . .
Until now.
Remember Stacey Jay and this?
I hate to even bring her name into this again, because she wants peace and quiet and I totally respect that.
But how is it fair for her to be bullied into leaving the internet and for this guy to raise over $100k to fund his next two books?
How is this fair?
Where is the backlash?
Because I'm not seeing it.
Eric Ries (bless him, don't know him) asked Can a Book Be a Startup?
Apparently, it can.
So someone should tell Stacey, and someone should tell every troll who posted rude, nasty, and threatening comments over her startup.
I'm so over this. It's exhausting.
*deep breaths*
Stand up for what you believe in, people. Keep the conversation going. This can't keep happening.
It just can't.
