WHEN CRITIQUE TURNS INTO "MONKEY BUSINESS"

 When a writer writes a book, they create characters and take them on a unique journey. It is obvious that not every character will have an acceptable personality, just as no single book is meant for every reader.

However, what is entirely unacceptable is when certain individuals read your book and, out of disapproval or critique, choose to follow the author everywhere. They engage in "monkey business" by sarcastically mimicking her words, her posture, and her actions. I refer you to this article about monkey business to better understand the shallow and immature behavior of these critics—behavior that I, as a writer, personally have been facing for a decade.
