I had the displeasure of meeting her at my NC writers group back in 1992. It was towards the beginning of her career and we were all excited that she said she would come and talk with us.
I won't go into detail other than she came, acted like a prima donna and refused to talk shop. She sat, ate junk food and stared at the television.
The whole affair left a sour taste in my mouth and I lost all respect for her. Never have bought a book of hers since (not that it matters - she's done well)
I didn't even buy her books that were co-authored with Holly Lesile (she was the head of the writers group)
However, I can vouch for Holly. She is awesome and really cares about writers and learning all one can about their craft.
