K Tempest Tumbles

I'm K. Tempest Bradford, a writer, blogger, tech geek, and all around nerd. I'm such a big science fiction/fantasy/speculative fiction fan that I even write it (I know, pretty hard core!).

I have a non-Tumblr blog and that's where the majority of my long-form posts go. This blog is for my more fannish activities, link sharing, and squeeness.

You can’t bad mouth someone’s work just because you don’t like it.

Actually, yes you can. This whole business about hwo it’s ooohhh soooo hardddd to be an artist and *hand to forehead* he’s doing his best and it’s so unfair to criticize him because he has so much responsibility!

Bullshit. Utter, complete bullshit.

Look, I’m a writer. I write both fiction and non-fiction. I know what it means to have to write on a deadline, what it means to have to write often and in volume. Scott has a job. If he is unable to do that job — write well — because he is overwhelmed then he doesn’t get a pass. Just because it’s writing doesn’t mean he’s a special snowflake.

No one is immune from criticism from people who aren’t int he exact same situation. If you’re not good at your job, you’re just not.
