I do love Jo's novels, but I like the Small Change series SO much more. I may even have started a fancast of Farthing. Oops. Tooth and Claw is fun, especially if you like Trollope, but alternate history/mystery is much more my style.

I think her main issue is that she's very territorial of her vision of not just her own works but others. I know she refuses to see the films of novels she loves (LOTR in particular) so they won't affect/supersede the way she's imagined them for years. Honestly I think it's overreacting ("ok, don't watch them then") and fanfiction is definitely not akin to rape ("ok, don't read them"). For someone who wrote such a love-letter to fandom and fans in Among Others, it's surprising and a little disappointing.
