I try to not let the negative comments on my books get to me, but sometimes words truly hurt. If you do not like how I write my characters, no one is forcing you to read it. If you say that it is a waste of time to read, then why do you? Readers can stop following the story quietly without the need to leave such comments. I wrote Eerika how I wanted her to be, not for the readers but for myself. She is my creation and she will talk and act however I see fit. To me she is not annoying, or a blubber, and she is not weak or whiny. I wrote her to be real. She has emotion, she cries, she loves. I gave her as much dimension as I could. I made her human, even though she is fey. I wrote her's and Calder's love from my own heart. If you want her to be like every other heroine in every single fantasy romance book out there, I'm sorry to say my books are not for you. Even the strongest characters have their feelings and moments.
I will try to update the latest chapter of Iron Queen by Sunday night. Thank you to those who love Eerika as she is and my books the way they are.
