RARA-AVIS: Kernick hedging

No problem with your post, Karin. But I have a problem with Simon Kernick' comment:
 
"I personally wouldn't write a scene that involved gratuitous..."

He's hedging his bet with the word "gratuitous." Anything that comes after it shouldn't be written. If he doesn't want to do child violence, he ought to at least have the gumption to say it flat out, without qualifying it with cheap disclaimers like
"gratuitous."
