My sincerest apologies for failing to read the user info page. This page is likely something nobody reads, similar to disclaimers.

Do you really believe that I feel as if I'm in hot water? I feel as I have entered the internet equivalent of a van full of geeks telling me that they are going to do things to me if I do not eliminate my favorite five option.

Flounce? Flounce? I do not flounce.

I neglected to introduce the fact that the story is online and was originally posted as a blog. The person that wrote the blog deleted it and persons unknown reposted this blog elsewhere.

Wait... I'm confused. He partially wrote it himself, but it was originally a blog that some unnamed person wrote and then deleted, and mysterious Internet Elves reposted it elsewhere, and now he wants to spank it up for professional publication. Shouldn't he get the rights back from the elves first? Or are they holding his coherence captive, and they won't give it back until he pounds out the rest of the story?

	Yeah, I'm confused as to what the hell blog he's talking about. I really hope he's not intending to snag someone's work offline, tack on a few words, and start submitting it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
