Tor Folks: You may disagree with the Sad/Rabid Puppies, or feel loyalty to your co-workers-but please! Don’t insult our readers by claiming they don’t exist! I was thus appalled to see posts suggesting that the emails to Tor-many of which, I am led to understand, are arriving with photos of the reader’s Tor book collections, in some cases, collections worth thousands of dollars-were not legitimate but were sent from automated bots. Many of these readers are people I know, people I interact with online, or fans of John’s who have written us thoughtful letters explaining why they regretfully feel they must stop buying Tor book, despite their desire to keep reading John’s latest series. On the other hand, I also have tremendous sympathy for the fans-a few of whom are veterans who fought actual Nazis-who feel they are tired of being heckled and humiliated by a very few Tor employees, who have been behaving in a less than professional manner. On one hand, I have tremendous sympathy for the many good folks at Tor, some of whom I have known for 30 years. The last week or so has been very painful.
