Tim Barrus, New York Times

I do not mean to single out another writer. It’s not her fault that publishing deals fundamentally with not just a blacklist, but a set of blacklists that work like flawless machinery that could separate the good from the bad and the bad from the bad and the good from the body politik. Colleen Hoover is a great writer. There should be no such thing as a blacklist in publishing or anywhere else.
