Blogosphere revolts!

There is a power inherent in the internet, and that is that people have the power to communicate, and thus to make things happen, with a short number of key strokes. Thanks to to folks at Making Light, and also to the ineffable Miss Snark, I have become aware of the case of Barbara Bauer and the ceassation of the site Absolute Write which was one of the predominant web-based resourses for new writers. As a new writer, I take offense to this. As a young person growing up in contemporary society, I like to believe that censorship does not occur, or at the very least it shouldn't. The following is a link to the SFWA page that lists the 20 worst literary agents, of which Ms Bauer is reporedly one.
