Thumper I know how much you loved Tracy Price-Thompson's work (http://reviews.aalbc.com/awomansworth.htm). By the way I did not slap her.
On the 10 hour flight I read Tracy's latest novel Gather Together in My Name a book that Booking Matters Magazine founder Shunda Leigh called: "The BEST book I've read in the last 5 years!".
I read her book on my new Kindle ebook reader (more on this device later).
Tracy and her family were the most down to earth and engaging people I've meet in a long time. Tracy and her husband welcomed us into their home like we were close relatives.
It was my first visit to Hawaii and I enjoyed every minute.
Tracy with her husband Greg
Tracy also promised that she would not flip on me like "The One Who Shall Remain Nameless" did 'cause I posted her photo. |

I just finished Gather Together In My Name by Tracy and just when Im thinking she can't possibly top any of her other works..whew..she hit another one out of the park. The book had me reading it at stop lights, not wanting to wait on customers at work and continuing to read when my eyes were burning until I found out the who, why and what the HAIL is going on UP IN HERE...whew GREAT reading.

Troy Johnson,
Kola Boof did not "flip on you" for posting
her photograph.
She flipped on you because of untrue comments
you reportedly made about her sexuality to
several people who reported those comments
back to her.
Kola considered you a friend and liked you
best of all out of everyone she met, so she
was devastated.
And I mean devastated.
She says that she had just invited you
and your wife to visit her and her children
at the new home Kola is building.
She also felt that you deliberately photographed
her to look as unflattering as possible.
In particular, she feels that you were making
fun of her height and that the photos were
posted to score points with people who don't
like Kola; namely Zane, Cynique, FerociousKitty
and the usual Kola experts/haters, etc.
Kola has tried to laughed off your comments
but of course betrayal like that is impossible
to ever forget.
Finally, you got her where it hurts.
She (and her children) are severely wounded
by you, Troy.
Please don't try and portray Ms. Boof as a
"diva" acting out when you know full well the
lies being manufactured about her and your
role entertaining the Kola haters with
"whatever" it was you were saying.
Kola Boof reached out to everyone who met her at your party with love, humor and sincere affection.
And though people smiled in her face, she was rejected.
Kola wrote this message and asked me to post it.
Kola has no malice or bad wishes for anyone
anywhere in the world.
But believe it or not, she is a human being too. When people spit on her she gets the
message.
Please do not spread the lie that Ms. Boof
flipped on you for posting her photos.
So much more went on behind the scenes.
