Nipples? Not so much…

 So, I’ve been trying to work out why people read my blog as it’s not really riveting stuff yet people keep coming back. It’s more a random thoughts of the day blog. So, every so often I put tag lines like ‘nipples’ on to see if people read because of the titillation factor…no, I’m not pardoning the pun. I did it a while ago with ‘pointy penises in pink panties’ and I have to tell you that nipples and penises do not attract substantially any more  readers to said blog. They are on par with ‘goat track’, ‘pay attention stupid’, ‘sauté a wildebeest’ or ‘cellulite.’ Of course with other writers  reading the blog, the big tag lines are ‘non payment of royalties’ and the ever popular Noble publishing debacle – and I have to absolutely thank Anom – remember her? She went on every ex-Noble writer’s blog and stamped her feet, vented her spleen, pretended to be someone she wasn’t when we all knew who she was and basically vowed she would ‘purse’ people instead of pursue them. Now she attracted, and still does, a bucket load of attention to the blog. Sad thing is I never heard from her again but I hope you still read the blog, Anom. I miss you. No really, I like the insane.

So there. Nipples. Not so much. Penises? Sure, they’re out there. Why do people read stuff? I don’t know. I expect if we did know we’d all do better.      

50 shades of bilious green....

So, the other day when all the shite hit the fan, like other authors, I sent an email to Noble Romance Publishing – yes Anom, get ready to get your knickers in a knot – basically stating that the attached reversion of rights letter had been sent  certified snail mail to them. To be honest, I didn’t expect anything from them due to their excellence in non-communication to me. Opinion, Anom – it’s all to do with the right to free speech, something you seem to have no concept of even though it’s something most Americans appear to have etched into their DNA as a right. Yes, comment on the blog by all means. I miss you doing that. Anyway, this morning I received an email that said I ‘should expect a response by the middle of this week.’ No, it doesn’t mean it will be a good response or I won’t continue with further action to get my rights back. Other authors have received a similar email missive. I await the next instalment of what is an angst ridden saga which frankly if it was made into a book it would be reviewed as “unbelievable, lacking in substance and considered 50 shades of bilious green. A book to stomp on and then throw against the wall in frustration.” 

Anom and her purse....

So there’s this individual/twerp called ‘Anom’ running around the blogs or posts of people who have written anything about Noble Publishing and the troubles they’re having. She’s a dropkick who has trouble stringing a sentence together and she threatens/predicts/ stamps her feet telling everyone that we all need to be good or we’ll be ‘purse(d)’. Bless her cotton socks I think she means ‘pursued.’ I feel kinda sorry for Anom – possibly she meant to be the quintessential ‘Anon’ but was having another purse moment – that and she was dumb enough to use someone else’s online, long running persona who actually commented on the same blog she did. Oops. 

No really, feel sorry for her because she has stuff all else to do but write dumb arsed comments on blogs. Mine included.  But in saying all that, I welcome you Anom, and your purse, to read, comment and reflect on the Amarinda Blog.
