| FS It appears that they are now foolishly putting some of our real names, thinking it would hurt some of us. I just wanted to thank them for the free publicity. It beats paying a publicist!
This morning I was emailed & asked about it. The person said I was taking it well. Why not? It's all a part of the game. If you go to my website, you'd find out more information. I've posted it all here, too. Do a search on my name at Google.com, & you'll find plenty. You can't "out" someone who has made her life an open book ('scuse the "pun"). I have nothing to hide. Such is the life of a published author who is looking to get more published.
So, thanks again, FS...for the free publicity!

| Oh well...more people to see how sick I am of rude jerks trying to hurt other people, but really helping them!
It should be loads of fun to get all that publicity when the book based on my writings at Fantasy Land comes out.
Eat your hearts out, people who hate fantasy fiction!

| Az, that's been my motto for a very long time. It's what got me published in the first place.
For my first novel, I was tempted to write (for my dedication), "To everyone who said I couldn't do it. It gave me pleasure to prove you wrong."
I settled on something a little nicer. But I always use the negative words of others to keep me focused.

| Haha Moon that's a good one. I used to say something close to that. So how long before the FL book comes out?

| Go to the Fantasy Land board. That's the skeleton of the book based on my character.

| My advice is just use your real names, be brave and stand by what you say.

| I forgot to mention that the first chapter of my novel (before the recently revised version) is available for viewing at www.bitbooks.com. Once you're at the main board, click on "Stories for Teens." I believe Secrets of the Maiden, by MARY GIBBS is near the top.
I have no idea when the new version will be ready, but another book is just about finished (edited) & ready for submission. If you want to comment on it, you can email me at Moonitic@aol.com. I used my screen name from AOL on the board to make it easier to communicate via AIM with other members. I've grown rather fond of this "handle," & it suits me well. By the way, for those considering it, this isn't an open invitation for you to email rude remarks to me.

| Hey Moon,
I hear that I'm part of the discussion on FS now, too. Seems I'm in good company. I'm flattered. I avoid that site like the cesspool that it is. Hang in there kid. Speaking of which.........How's the kid hanging in?

| WEll it seems they think I dont have a neck, which I find hilarous!!! Also after subjecting my poor brain to the inane ramblings I find that they seem to think that I was a minor at one stage. Fat chance guys, I didnt start fencing till I was 20!
Interesting how people can draw conclusions about you when they dont even know you isnt it?

| Zelda,
You're so right. At least we can't accuse them of having no imagination. Some of the wild lies they've told about the fine folk at FN (jealousy, maybe?) are just so far out there that they deserve an award, or at least a good laugh.
I guess that's what happens when the "special" wing of the hospital lets their patients use the internet.

| Moon, just consider the source. We know who the trouble makers were and (are). Even if they wont admit it. We found them out.
Thanks, fencing net friends for your help and support. And to our enemies I say.
