Neither pen nor sword

Sometimes a pen can be mightier than a guillotine.

If you logged on to Yahoo or Google today you have read the headlines about Stephen King and his statement that "Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn."

Mr. King! Mr. King! I am a fanatic fan of yours - BUT - chopping some one's head off for no particular reason - is only entertaining in your horror stories. In real life... your words are called cruelty. Call me Pollyanna, but freedom of speech should not mean freedom to slander. We all have opinions and you are certainly a master of your craft. That said.... Twilight is a phenomenon and Stephenie Meyer is not Carrie at your prom.
