PKM resurgat

I have no idea how I initially ran into Patricia Kennealy-Morrison's now-defunct website, lizardqueen.com, several years ago-- even now, I think I've only read two or three of her books, and none of them before then-- but I enjoyed reading it and I was sorry when it vanished. While the site still hasn't returned, she now has a blog at http://mojohotel.blogspot.com/ ; it'll probably take a while for me to catch up with her archive of past posts.

While acknowledging that she may've lost some of her "Keltiad" fanbase by discouraging fan-neepery thereof in the strongest possible way, she doesn't seem to regret that aspect. It's always fascinating to see the wide range of authorial reactions to fandom appropriation (I mutter, guiltily glancing sideways at the doujinshi I'm currently translating-- although even if two wrongs don't make a right, three lefts do).

Sure; I wouldn't dispute her right to close it off. It just seems awfully self-defeating. (I suppose one could make a thin argument that the Keltiad is, in turn, Celtic-mythology/Mabinogion fanfic, though of course that's long out of copyright...)
