Strange Things Happened...

[reviews_and_ramblings]

In the last few days I have found some comments from Anonymous in my LJ. They are pretty nasty comments. So to the first I didn't reply but I leave it (it was in a very old post, so I was thinking no bad can arrive from it). But today I have found another two comments, always from anonymous: one again in the same post and was a pretty strong accuse to a book I read and the comment is against the author; in this particular case I don't know personally the writer, but I don't like they use my LJ to throw nastiness. The second comment is "pure" spam. So I have deleted all the three comments and signalated them as "spam". I write this post only to assure you that I have never before deleted a comment, even if from anonymous. But in this case I think I'm in my right to do so.

Thank you for that, I hadn't thought of the wayback machine and every additional piece of evidence will help. Though, to tell the truth, the story considerably pre-dated even its introduction onto my website. It has been archived at www.tomparisdorm.com since 29th August 2003. According to the wayback machine (see how quickly I learn? LOL) Venus press launched 'The Edge' as a brand new novel in May of 2005.
I feel sorry for all the people who have been paying good money for 2 1/2 years for a story that has been available on-line for free since 2003.

I'm just a bystander from metafandom... I hope everything is resolved quickly for this author!

BTW, Amanda, if you want a silver lining and you yourself have ambitions to be published... if you want, once this is over, you can approach the publisher about writing something for them! After all, they've already published your stuff. :0)
