Okay, I don’t really know that much about Poppy Z. Brite, except that she writes novels of the horror variety (and I’m broadly generalizing here, because I’ve never read any of them). Apparently, there’s a Livejournal fansite devoted to her, among other things. PBZ attempted to communicate with them and was told that she wasn’t welcome. In other words, she was kicked off her own fansite. The, ahem, beleaguered author tells the tale in great detail here: Dispatches from Tanganyika.
Very, very funny. In that quirky, internettish kind of way, of course.
