"We are laughing so hard - but also GETTING YOU FIRED!"
Quintessential novelist L.B. Wilshere-Cumming's Intarweb Lawyer/Agent has something to say. Shame on you, fandom_wank. Shame on you for trying to bring down such a brave little soldier.

ETA: The Author herself speaks! And appears to suffer from the same Parentheses Disease as her esteemed agent!

SON OF ETA: "Lionel Austin", Sockpuppet-At-Law, has shown up on the journal of the original wank's poster, [info]varesh. Threats and demands and legalese, oh my!

DAUGHTER OF ETA: Bahleeted! Screencap of "Lionel's" original rant here. Anyone get The Author's site?

MOTHER-IN-LAW OF ETA, SHEESH: The requisite demand on Journalfen's support page for the wank to be taken down or face LEGUL AKSHON is here.

Waitwaitwait. A real, honest-to-goodness lawyer used the "HA HA WE'RE ALL LAUGHING SEE HOW MUCH WE DON'T CARE!" in an official document?

If I were this author lady, I'd find myself some new representation, pronto.

Horribly inane attempts at snark, double check.

We need some world's smallest violin icons. I know you guys have them. This one is just asking for it with for the lone brave soldier.

All I can offer is boomstick. And Vincent ass. My OTP one doesn't quite fit here.

*flips a coin*

Boomstick it is.

(Reposted due to being too stupid to read through the whole thing BEFORE commenting.)

Your ship has already sunk when you have to preface super duper mega official no really we mean it documents with, "and yes he is a real person." Twice.

Also, the Parentheses Fairy called. She's DYING.

Googling "lionel austin" on its own and, in turn, with "australia," "lawyer," "literary" and "agent" shows no results having to do with this. There is a standup comedian in Melbourne named Lionel Austin, but as he's 22 I doubt he's a literary agent on the side. And there's a Lionel Austin who's dead since 2004 and has a number of memorial pages. Again, unlikely to have written this letter. Y HALO THAR SOCKPUPPET.

Also, I love when people accuse us of "attacking" when they've put up all sorts of personal shit. Hoist on their own petards and all that.

(saying where she lives, what she looks like, discrediting her qualifications, and attacking her family)

Well, don't think we covered all those bases..

But we can, and in a moment's notice.

And on a side note, her next book is called "The Crying Clown"?!

What, was "The Velvet Elvis" or "The Dogs Playing Poker" already taken?

when the insults move away from Lisa's books and become personal, inappropriate and cross boundaries (saying where she lives, what she looks like, discrediting her qualifications, and attacking her family)
Yes. No one who puts up pictures of herself on the Web should *ever* have her appearance discussed! Why, that'd be...wrong! And anarchy! And. Stuff. Thing.

Also! Why does a vanity-published 'author' need an agent?

Damn, I didn't post in the wank which prompted this "open letter". Maybe by commenting here, I'll get my own personal Cease and Desist letter?

*clears throat*

Lisa's mother was a hamster, and her father smelt of elderberries!!!
