Awful novel burns my eyes,
Cardboard characters.

Damn, she’s right! LOL…I screwed the pooch on that one.
I have rewritten it, but let the record state I was busted (by the author no less!) for constructing a haiku that only had 4 syllables in the first line. Originally it said: low-grade kindling (4 syllables).
OK, I keep forgetting to ask you: Did she send you some kind of additional email, or was the mean haiku the sum total of her communication? And, by the way, isn’t a mean haiku oxymoronic?
And, come to think of it, “idiot blogger” is ungrammatical, anyway. “Idiot” is the noun form, not the adjective. Should be “idiotic blogger,” which screw up her whole haiku.

Hmmmm…perhaps “idiot blogger” is right.

And yes, I realize I screwed up that last line of the haiku.

(Oh. Although I do disagree with you about her book.)
