Any fan of classic literature would be able to tell you this is his most famous work to date, an extraordinary piece of literature was considered obscene by readers at the time. One of my favorite writers of all time is Oscar Wilde, a man who was arrested and jailed for writing The Picture of Dorian Gray. Naturally, the last thing I want is to offend readers but as a writer I look up to great authors who came before me. As I remain torn between the decisions to post all stories or just a few, every opinion is helpful to me. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. Thanks so much for reading my stories and for leaving a message. This deeply saddens me and until we figure out why children are becoming so fragile I’ll place warnings on my books. Nowadays kids hang themselves if someone insults their shoes on Facebook. These generations endured some of the worst bullying in history and lived to become mothers and fathers who raised resilient children. That’s when she wasn’t being sexually harassed by male students who felt they had a right to her because of their upbringing in the Jim Crow south while teachers turned a blind eye. My grandmother admitted that girls would break glass soda bottles and shove black students down on the shards. To which I replied that my grandmother and great grandfather came from generations that integrated the schools. My husband read about a tragic rise in teen suicides and he asked me if the world has become worse with regard to bullying. My warnings are mainly for children because kids are not the same as they were when I was younger. If I started reading something that wasn’t my flavor I set it aside and read something else without going on the internet and bashing the author in a fascist march towards censorship. I grew up never having seen a warning on a book and I survived.
