***Scratches Head***
Seriously...I advised other people to stay away from that CRAZY site...and what did I do? I go there...***Smacks head on desk***
Why, oh why, does this site find me so interesting?
Why do they ACTUALLY have a link to my BLOG on their site?
Why did I let curiosity get the better of me???
Okay, fine...let's do this...
I can't justify what my family member did...it DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. This person has blamed it on the pain meds they take, on the psych meds they take, on the sleeping pills they take, and finally, they blamed it on out-right stupidity.
At that point, I forgave them.
They have promised to never be so helpful again (note the sarcasm). They are family, I love them, and I am going to do my best to move on from this...
That being said...
Now I am awfully confused. The site that shall not be named is trying really hard to make it out like it was me. Yeah, yeah...that is what they do. I get that. But...to compare my writing to my family members? Yeah, of course we would have similar writing...I was raised with this person, I type back and forth online with this person all the time. Ten years of internet communication and we kind of have some similar habits...So, I guess now I have my own sock puppet's according to that site.
But what has me really confused is how I fell to the wayside of that site in the first place. I am a really nice and honest person...Okay fine...there may be a little bit of a biatch mixed in there too.
I offered to open a line of communication with them. I offered to talk to them about whatever they have an issue about...but, apparently that site isn't into talking (or facts for that matter). Apparently, conspiracy theory's and anything they can "verify" on the internet is all they care about.
As to the current situation, had they notified me and asked me about it...my reaction would have been something like this...
What in the hell are you talking about???
I would have found the culprit (quickly caught by them having had access to my husbands email...1. This person set up the account for him. 2. They were on HIS computer when they did it.)
I would have made them use their email address to set the story straight (hum...I wonder if I should try that anyhow)...and I would have replied as cordially as possible and told "Athena" problem solved, so sorry, will NEVER happen again.
Instead they chose to do this expose and really...WTF! My family member is way more embarrassed than I am at this point. I started off feeling as if I would never recover...at this point? I think I am just still really frustrated that I can't set the story straight.
Sigh...
If any member of STGRB lives in MN and would like to come chat with me over a cup of coffee, really, drop me a line. Maybe you would just like to meet one of the "Amazon Flora Trolls" or one of the "Goodreads Bullies" in real life. Maybe you want to tell me to my face what you think of me...any way that it goes, I don't care.
Maybe then, the members of this site could figure out the reason I am not busy writing my next novel has more to do with the following information.
1. My husband was hospitalized in March.
2. I had surgery in January.
3. I have children...one of whom takes more time than the average kid.
4. I am bi-polar. And I am in a bi-polar slump right now. Book three is almost done...I just have no desire to write...and until I get out of the slump, it is probably going to stay that way...working on the outlines for my next book though.
5. My little brother is about to graduate from the marines, I am planning a trip to California for said graduation.
6. I don't really have the money to pay my editor right now. So once the book is done, I can't get it edited until I have more money.
7. Tons of DR appointments...my January surgery failed.
If there is anything else you wonder about my life, just drop me a line. I am a very open person.
So, I am going to stop 'scratching my head' at this point and I am going to just say this...if my 8th blog post made it onto that site, there is no reason why they wouldn't see this one. If they want to talk to me, they have my email address and my real name...google me...I am sure you could even find my number if you dug hard enough...hell, email me and I would just give you the phone number! I just want this witch hunt to stop! It is ridiculous!
