So much for settling in gently, I inadvertently said something quotable while trying to make peace in my new "home."
This is a direct quote from Harper Collins Authonomy blog concerning the huge in rush of members thanks to a new author with a Starcraft following of thousands.
"Meanwhile, Authonomy has welcomed thousands of new members who have come from sites all across the Internet, places that would never have become aware of this endeavor before. We think that makes this place a little bit richer. "
"Newcomer KatJ270 exclaimed:
"Word of this has spread all over the Internet.
This site has been yanked out of obscurity into the spotlight.
The world is watching!"
"Watching and, we hope, reading."
I also said: "there is no such thing as bad publicity." Which mercifully was not quoted.
Now I get to eat those words.
Yum.
