I don't think it's an invasion of privacy, or all that weird. It's a blog, in reality, not private communication. She's writing about online fandom, I can see where someone would be interested in the real deal. The good news is that LJ lets you restrict access to whatever you want to whomever you want.
Natter 40: The Nice One
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Kill the natter! Kill the natter!
Hire a hit man!
...
Oh crap.

Allyson, I'd create an entirely new LJ and put all the cool stuff that the publisher wants on there.
Hire a hit man!
...
Oh crap.
And it turns out that Natter only had cheese anyway....
Kill the natter! Kill the natter!
And we called this one The Nice One?
And we called this one The Nice One?

Gardner said a woman seated with the man ran after him, yelling that her husband was bipolar and had not taken his medication. Gardner described the woman as “hysterical.”
Oh, that's terrible.

I agree with Juliana.
Some people consider a blog to be as public as anything else that's published. (Unless, of course, it's locked.)
