Author: MAGGIE STIEFVATER
Maggie Stiefvater is the author of The Raven Cycle series, published by Scholastic Press.
Racist joke in TRK between the popular white M/M ship aka Adam and Ronan towards Henry Cheng.
THE RAVEN KING: She introduced a new character, Henry Cheng. He is Chinese/Korean. His mother is a dealer of antiquities, because white authors always associate East Asians with mafia and whatnot. (x)
Publishing a book with Latinx rep without anyone to sensitivity read/check the Spanish. “Bicho Raro” means “Weird Dick” in some places when she said it means “Weird Bird” and it doesn’t mean that.
She doesn’t like Ronan fancast as black when she does like Blue fancast as East Asian.
Fought teens on the internet + searched her name on Twitter and fought them as well
Joined John Green and others in attacking teens when they expressed discomfort with his online presence/involvement. (x)
The whole Halsey thing // Overall, a fan tweeted @ her that the song “Drive” reminded them of Blue and Gansey. Then Maggie tweeted several tweets about listening to the song. Then she laughed at the fan and everyone who said this because she thought Drive was about masturbation and she thought her characters were “above” that. Halsey saw the tweets and told her she couldn’t police how people view her songs. And then Maggie, shitty as she is, began to tag Halsey and fight on Twitter. (x) (x)
Remember when Maggie Stiefvater accepted a place in a panel talking about “other” like she is the voice to write about marginalized folks and representation because she is really popular? White privilege. (x)
