@freakishbbq agree 😦
the fact he was at least big enough to admit in his servants of the empire author’s notes on tumblr that some of his ideas for merei and early drafts were ignorant and sexist sort of made me hope maybe he’d be willing to listen but. it’s been 6+ months of catering to reyIos that’s clearly not the case.
im picking up tales from vandor because im hoping it’s removed enough from all that bs that it’s still enjoyable but after the (predictable) disappointment of rose tico resistance fighter i’m not sure what to expect.
it sucks because i enjoy a lot of his work, i think he writes well, his enthusiasm for star wars is very apparent and i do appreciate people who are willing to engage with fans BUT, WELL. he engages with all the wrong people for all the wrong reasons.
i hope for any future replica journal books maybe someone else can write them? he’s done most of the movie tie ins, but michael kogge did poe dameron: flight log and daniel wallace did the star wars rebels ones and i liked those a lot.
