Re: Spite-reading C.S. Pacat's _Dark Rise_...
(Anonymous) 2021-11-23 07:16 am (UTC)(link)She also mentioned Tolkien in that thread (among the "pastoral fantasy stories" she allegedly wanted to subvert).
I think she explicitly mentioned Cooper because someone on twitter quoted a passage from TDiR in vague hint at her summary having some very suspicious similarities.
Iirc, it went something along the lines of: Pacat/someone from the publisher posting some meaningful quote (tm) from the book as a sneak peak ad - someone qrt-ing it at someone else both of whom apparently talked about the Cooper summary similarities - the person getting tweeted at commenting the Cooper passage in reply because the original Pacat quote sounded similar - Pacat seeing it, getting pissy and writing that cringe thread.
