I am a Victim of TwitHate and CyberBullying

All I did was ask Kevin J. Anderson, bestselling author, a man I admire, how he records his books. He is known for writing into a tape recorder, you see, and I was curious about his tools.

The next thing I know I was being systematically harrassed by this McDune group of KJA haters. The name list grows daily but so far they are: Serkanner RealDune DuneSandChigger SKKahl DunesDreamer Loteqs and IdunnAsynja. I use no "at" because I don't want more attention from them than I already have.

I have blocked them in Twitter and on TweetDeck. I have reported them to Twitter. They continue reading my old tweets and saying flattering things. You know, suggestions like reasons why they think I have been jobless for 9 months. Insults on my writing, which they have never read, etc. Classy group of individuals.

In any case, Kevin will be on chat next month, and if you're a regular, or even my friend, you might want to block these people. We will ignore them, and we will continue to chat in spite of them. But I won't see their comments so you might not want to either, and please don't respond.  I'll post update instructions and list pre-chat.

Meanwhile, if you're friends with any of them, I suggest you rethink it. This kind of behavior does not represent free speech. It represents bullying. It represents being an ass. Attacking people who have never contacted you is not sensible behavior. It is not respectable or intelligent. In fact, I had never even mentioned Dune, the story they claim to own the right to approve or disapprove any related books for.

In any case, people acting like this makes me sick. Please join with me in praying hate can end. It doesn't belong in a civilized society.
