> As a reader, I don't think the writer has that right.  You could always keep a private journal that no one has the right to read.  Being a fan does not mean nor require constructive criticism.  If you have fans bitching about what you wrote or condoned, you would still have fans.  No need to be an ungrate writer to them.

Magpie:
Got to agree there. People are always going to second-guess a writer's choices if they're inclined, which is not always a bad thing. But I don't have a problem with negative reactions either. Sometimes I get something out of that sort of discussion, sometimes I don't.
