Why her? I mean, aren't there shittier people who've got big for shittier reasons? Not defending her but I'm a bit more creeped out that Roman Polanski can still make money than that Cassie Claire can. It's also not exactly news that having personal connections far outweighs talent when it comes to achieving artistic fame.

And why you? I know I know, it's sometimes hard NOT to compare oneself to other writers but at the end of the day her life has nothing to do with yours. Her being famous has zero effect on you or your work. Let it the fuck go.

But Roman Polanski didn't severely offend fandom. Claire is 100x more horrible automatically because FANDOM DRAMAZ OH NOES.

DINGDINGDING! We have a winner!

I've been differing fairly strenuously with you on this thread, but this is something I absolutely agree with. I hope OP is prepared to take it to heart.

Listen, if someone posted a secret hating on Roman Polanski, you can bet your ass I'd be there with a pitchfork and a few choice words about what a shitty human being I think he is. But THIS secret is about Cassandra Claire. So that's why all the hate here is directed at her instead of Roman Polanski.

Amen.

I hate to say this, but I think talent has something to do with it. There are shitty people who make lots of money and are successful. Look at Michael Jackson. Yes people might hate them, and MJ's work wasn't my cup of tea, but you have to acknowledge that they are really good at what they do. Polanski's films are really very good, for the most part.

It seems that people are somehow offended by CC because she was a bully and unpleasant etc, and her writing is shit, yet she still made lots of money out of it. I suspect we wouldn't see these secrets if the writing was winning her literary prizes.
