Dawn Dorland was so moved by donating one of her kidneys that she wrote a heartfelt letter about it on Facebook. And then the letter turned up in someone else's short story. Art often draws inspiration from life — but what happens when it’s your life?

#BadArtFriend - Final Thoughts

Twitter sucks.

Literary communities that become self-serving echo chambers also suck.

Sonya Larson & Dawn Dorland do not suck. They are human beings whose personalities we have reduced to useful caricatures for our consumption.

WE suck.

A (sincere) proposal for #BadArtFriend RECONCILIATION:

1) Both D & S agree to end all lawsuits eff. immediately.

2) Each chooses 5 stories for a joint collection (@pronounced_ng to facilitate pub).

3) All proceeds (after paying legal fees to date for both) go to charity.

Fin.

Allow each to show their human side vs. the caricatures of them that are out there right now. #BadArtFriend

@hels While enjoyable, reading and re-reading your own tweets is not necessarily the best way to increase your awareness of a situation.🤷‍♀️ #BadArtFriend
