Good god people.

Criticizing JK Rowling is not an act of unforgivable evil.

In reference to this.

Edit: And for the record, I hadn't even heard of Yolen before now. Being an obsessive fan is fine and all (I'm one myself), but if it gets to the point where you cannot tolerate even the idea of someone saying something unflattering about your particular obsession, then it's something to be worried about.

Edit2: As long as, you know, it doesn't apply to me. Hypocrisy and all that jazz.

Edit3: Oh, why do I bother?

Wait, who is accusing who of plagiarism?

It was less of an accusation and more of a joke, but like clockwork, certain fans of HP jumped on an author (Yolen) who joked about Rowling writing her a check, hence the accusation that she was accusing Rowling of plagiarism. Ah, HP fandom. It never bores me.
