Wanderingscribe - Abridged
For those of you who are discovering this blog (and related ones) and wandering what all the fuss is about, there can be an awful lot of waffle to read.
In fact, the main selling point about wanderingscribes blog is the sheer amount of waffle that one has to wade through.
I therefore present an abridged version of her blog.
Bear in mind that there were some posts that contained absolutely no news at all. Just 100% waffle.

Why have Harper Collins allowed the grammar and spelling mistakes to appear in her page on their site?
I just don't understand this at all.
This is so obviously a PR stunt.
Hooray!!! It's sweet, scary and exciting! Small steps are easier than giant ones.
Soon, more writings begin!!! All the culminations shall be in one book. Please put your poetry in the book. They are melodic as your writings.
You have worked so very hard for everything.
Lots of hugs, hopes and wishes!!!
The above is a comment by one of her sheeplike followers. The line 'You have worked so very hard for everything' was the one I found hardest to believe.
Looks like the only line missing was "We love you long time".

There's evidence of hard work. 30th March, a busy day.
"Do crosswords in Student Bar in hospital all morning, with my back to everyone, trying to stay upright on their leather sofa, and invisible, eating doughnuts and drinking black tea, trying hard to stay awake and to think straight."

Thanks for your kind words.
However, and it may come as a bit of a shock to you, not everyone shares your idealistic view of Anya and I can quite categorically state that I am not in love with her (although a ménage a trois with her, me and a baseball bat does sound rather appealing). :)
As for discrediting her, all I am doing is regurgitating the facts that she posts in a different light.
She serves up the slop, I get rid of all the extraneous frippery and present the black and white facts.
Folks are then free to make up their own minds (something that her heavily moderated comments section does not allow).

p.s. Anybody "ranting" doesn't get much mileage on this site as do off topic whiners. Let's stay focused, people!! ;)
