• Jude’s Forum: Fake Amazon Reviews: Due to a debate I got into over at twitter, I wrote an article a.. http://bit.ly/uRAr1 #
• @kaaslaw No, you wouldn’t be able to get through the day without reading my riveting tweets! #
• @SensualStories Thanks for the RT! At least I don’t have the dreaded 666 anymore. LOL #
• @kaaslaw Go in wearing shorts and flip flops. That’ll really impress them! #
• @ScarletCorset Not me for a couple more hours! #trueblood #
• @arianna_skye Yes, I know! #
• @ScarletCorset LOL That’s OK then. Make me even more anxious to see it! #
• @lizstrauss It’s a huge networking house! LOL #
• @SensualStories Not that I believe in all that, but just in case! LOL #
• @SensualStories LOL I don’t know, I lost another follower and now sit only 1 above that dreadful number! *gasp* #
• @The_Grilldog Do you notice the dweeb doesn’t even have a decent avatar? The pic is sideways for goodness sake! LOL #
• @The_Grilldog What does he think this is? A domain registrar. Loser! #
• @LukeRomyn LOL Well, if they’re looking for foreplay techniques on twitter, I pity them. #
• @LukeRomyn I just did a check and only two results came up. LOL…yours and someone else looking for another topic. #
• @MBartloff Dang! Even her blog has been removed! wtf? #
• @LukeRomyn LOL only out of curiosity that YOU sparked! Doubtful too many look since no one else uses it! #
• @MBartloff I guess she decided to throw in the towel! *sigh* Oh well! #
• @SensualStories LMAO A devilish lady, huh? Sure! #
• @TeresaMedeiros http://twitpic.com/cmvrr – LOL They look like you interrupted a private conversation! #
• @LukeRomyn LOL You can say that again and mean it! #
• @MBartloff I’m guessing she just got burnt out and moved on to other things. Happens all the time on the web! Sad but true! #
• @SensualStories Pollyanna with a whip! Now I can envision that! LOL #
• @LukeRomyn Oh, OK, thanks for the clarification! LMAO #
• @VampireFaust Yeah, she shoots Jason because of something her husband tells her? What a fickle broad! Jeesh! #trueblood #
• @wtfskh Definitely a running theme there, isn’t there? #
• @SensualStories Yeah, whips can be dangerous with the backlash. Come hither looks are so much safer! LOL #
• @wtfskh I doubt I’ll ever be willing to put the time into becoming an expert! @sensualstories #
• @wtfskh I’ll have to take your word on that! Whips do seem interesting, especially when wielded by superheroes! LOL #

• @TerriMo Hey there! I found the photo used for your cover while looking for other hot photos! http://tinyurl.com/n4txvm #
• @wtfskh Yeah, that was a cool scene. And Catwoman did a good job with her whip as well! #
• @TerriMo Yeah I’ve found quite a few nice pics on that site, including another pic used on a CP cover. Guess that’s where they get them! #

• Voted! RT @DeannaJewel http://thenewcoveytraileraw… – vote for my book trailer, #10, Never Surrender, a time travel romance, thanks! #
• @dearauthor Well,unfortunately she is right there are idiotic&mean ppl who enjoy posting BS bad reviews on random books.Hard to distinguish. #
• @dearauthor disagree with it? Oh my, that’s a bit closed minded. You really think every bad review out there is legitimate? Oh well! #
• @katiebabs Yes it is lame, and it IS being done! The same as some authors post five star reviews on their own books under fake names. #
• @dearauthor Well, I can usually recognize the fake one from the real ones. Fakes are very vague and mostly insulting. #
• @dearauthor not easily distinguishable. I said I usually can tell the difference! #
• @dearauthor I shouldn’t need to tell you the definition of easily, should I? Not everything distinguishable is easy! #
• @dearauthor I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree then. I’m a writer who knows how it feels. Ur a reader who likes writing bad reviews. #
• @dooce http://twitpic.com/cihr6 – Awww, such cuties! #

• @dearauthor I’m sorry, maybe ur not @jane_l? Otherwise I have read (and enjoyed) your #romfail, so I know you like scorching bad fiction. #
• @dearauthor Of course you’re not, so there is no point in continuing to discuss it. Sorry I bothered you with my viewpoint. #
• Agh! I have 666 followers. Please someone follow to change that number! LOL #
• @SensualStories Ooh, I hate all snakes and couldn’t touch any of them. Ugh! LOL #

• @PennyAsh Only if you’re willing to fork out the cash for a new one! LOL #
• @jane_l LMAO…”unsuspecting organ?” WTF? There is nothing else up there BUT the cervix! Jeesh! Doesn’t this woman know female anatomy? #
• Thx for the RT’s and mentions! @XRothechilde @SensualStories @thevintagevibe @BelleKarper #
• @PennyAsh Well, if it’s old, you might be better off getting a new one. That’s what I did. Fairly cheap now a days! #
• @kaaslaw You just what? Love it? Hate it? Cut it? LOL #
• @TeresaMedeiros LOL…Isn’t that ALWAYS the way it goes! I’ll bet the clerk at Sam’s was surprised to see you. #
