I can't answer the questions because it didn't came up yet. Saw this on my F-List now; it's the first I hear about it. (One of the reasons I lowe LJ - I get to know things).
Regarding MZB (haven't read the other article) - That's awful. I was always a big fan of MZB; she and Anne McCaffrey were some of my favorites back then. Didn't have Internet then were you can get to know things.
*thinks* That must have been in the 80s I guess, around 1980 - 1984?
Reading your entry got me to think: I know almost no to nothing about the author's personal lives. Just lately I try to follow some via Goodreads and Twitter. Still I won't get anything too personal there. I doubt that MZB would have posted about this issue. I wonder how many of the readers know about that and how many don't.
I'm not sure though I would have read the books if I had known back then.
