Since her book came out, a debut author who confessed to writing fake profiles to 'one star bomb' non-white writers has been banned from her publisher as a result of her fear of being published. Crown of Starlight, a'steamy, sci-fi reimagining' of the Greek myth of Ariadne and Dionysus, was scheduled to be published in May 2024 by Cait Corrain, a Cait Corrain-based in Los Angeles.

Corrain also posted a tweet from January that she was "highly concerned about being killed for something silly" if her book came out.
