I knew the key points from the Kickstarter shambles but hadn't seen most of those emails before now. I'm simultaneously cringing myself inside out and shaking my head at the sheer twattery of her.
It takes a lot for me to complain about stuff IRL, but if I'd waited 2+ years for a book I'd paid for, had seen her plastered all over social media whilst claiming to be spending every waking moment working to resolve the issue, knew she was selling a "better" and more expensive version on Amazon, AND had got one of those pathetic non-apology emails from her, I'd be absolutely apoplectic. This is the kind of scandal that sinks people, so how has she got away with it?
Also, absolutely nothing has changed in 4-5 years, has it? The pattern of behaviour is exactly the same. Promises to deliver something, wheels out endless excuses for why it hasn't been done, blames a litany of ailments and frequent accidents for her own failure to treat people with common decency, and wails that she's being bullied and harassed when challenged at all. I'm amazed she hasn't purged the entire project page from the internet in order to rewrite history in her usual fashion, so can only assume Kickstarter won't let her.
