I could be a total bitch and say it's business as usual here: I didn't give a fuck about Harner before, and I certainly don't know.
I do hope Carew has enough clout to actually have frightened Harner off, but given her reaction to this, and the fact that she hasn't taken down her other books, I suspect this is not the case.
Harner hasn't addressed the plagiarism and is acting like nothing is going on. Other authors and reviewers are chewing nails. Evidently Harner has attended book events and schmoozed with other authors that right now can't believe her chutzpah.
Her backlist is HUGE, far too huge for her claiming of writing for 5 yrs. I would be surprised if more authors don't come forward.
I think on Facebook the criminal said a couple of days ago she would be issuing a statement -- haven't seen anyone mention or share a screenshot of that yet. I refuse to give her sites more traffic so wimping out waiting for wayback machine or google cache to show me a cached page afterwards...
