Emphasis mine.RAS: I have been surprised by the level of anger in some of the people. I haven't received any of the death threats personally, but they've been made, so I've been told. I have received many angry e-mails, and I've noticed a few curious things about the progression of that anger--it's like watching people going through a grieving process. One person, for example, wrote to me immediately, outraged and in complete shock. The guy was on the edge of absolute despair, it seemed to me. Then he wrote back a couple of weeks later, saying, basically, "Okay, I'm over it. I really liked the book."

True. I haven't heard anything recently about Salvatore wishing that people who didn't like his writing would die by strangulation, even the ones who made the death threats (that he didn't see).Ghost Rider wrote:Of course the whole bit that Salvatore didn't go apeshit speaks volumes as well.
