He also wants me to send him a book to review. Yeah, sure. Like he wants me to know his address. Supposedly, this guy has four degrees. If true, it is proof that education doesn't make creeps any better than non-educated creeps. And if he's an attorney, he knows that he started it; so where is his leg to stand on? Just a bully who can dish it out but can't take it, especially from a woman. Anyway, didn't Shakespeare hate lawyers? Aren't lawyers on the bottom rung in the inferno? What kind of bragging right is that? Does he do any pro-bono work?
Sounds like harassment and stalking to me. Then when I tell on him to Goodreads, in comes a girl, who may or may not be one of his minions, and she underhandedly asks me if it's wise to tell him to stop threatening me. I say "yes, that if the law won't do anything and this COULD be the stalker, or even if it's just a guy harassing me for NO reason, that, yes, I will tell him to leave me alone."
So "the guy" writes that he's going to sue me and that he's going to post my email to him online. Like I care. He said, "You'll be the laughing stock of Goodreads." Why would I be the laughing stock? He's the one who started the harassment. When I posted back that he could sue me all he wants, that I know the law, that he started the harassment, that it's hypocritical to harass me and then be a baby when I blog about it, he didn't like that. He told on me. Oh, I'm dying - whatever shall I do?
He told me he's not only a poet and an "educator", but an attorney. So what? And who calls themselves "educators" anyway? They call themselves professors. And why would someone with all those alleged credentials pick me out of millions to harass in the first place? What attorney and "educator" acts like that? Plus, the "educator" spelled my name wrong. Plus he thinks he can sue me for blogging. When I wouldn't bow down to him, as I said, he told on me.
So, either this guy is the original stalker or he's a new one. And yes, "guy", you did harass me and I saved the posts, so go ahead, baby, sue me. I also see that you've been called nasty and a bully on other Goodreads threads. The difference there is: these people choose to be bullied and keep letting him do it. It is a critique thread. I was minding my own business and he came out of nowhere like a vulture on the space where my book is.
There is also something obnoxious and suspicious about someone who is so educated that no matter what the subject is, he sounds like a textbook. Many of us have gone to college, and even in class, I never had a professor who regurgitates and vomits off so many facts at once about so many subjects at once. Something is not right. Funny, I am very good friends with a physicist, and he never spews textbook talk. Another suspicious thing is the way he copies my words to spout back at me. One being: "the truth will out." Yes, it will.
He has used his "attorney" schtick on Goodreads, because they caved. No one has principles anymore.
