R L stine author

Publisher Scholastic “sanitized” R L Stine’s books. His Goosebumps series has sold more than 300 million copies, the second highest after JK Rowling’s Harry Potter novels. Crazy became silly; plump became cheerful.

“He wrote: ‘I’ve never changed a word in Goosebumps. Any changes were never shown to me.’”

I don’t think I have any Scholastic books in the house, but Alexander, age nine, does. I hope Stine, age 79, sues the pants off Scholastic, not for gain, but to protect his poetic license and the licenses of other writers.

This is very important. The SPLC and the SSPX and the Catholic Church can handle their affairs without my criticism or help, but many writers have few resources, and a successful lawsuit against Scholastic would protect the license to write freely.

Some men like crazy women, and some like plump women, but only a feminist man could dislike both.
