Heh heh....and you call yourself a writer?

Heh heh....and you call yerself a human being?


Where do you suppose REAL writers get their characters
from, only their imaginations?

For starters, Kenny doesnt write fiction. He hacks out 200-word
'essays' that his mommy....ummm, I mean wifey, gets assigned to him
thru her connections at work,

A textbook example of how a Kook will take one fact and construct an
entire scenario of lies out of it. In their pathetic attempts to trash
me they have no qualms about dragging my wife into it as well.

My wife is Managing Editor for one of the book series I've worked on.
That is indeed how I found out about that particular opportunity for
freelance writers and how I got my start as a freelance writer. That's
the nugget of truth this kook started with. However, my wife has never
handed out assignments to me for this series or any other. My wife has
never had any influence; subtle or otherwise; over whether any article I
write is published. My wife has never edited my articles, my wife has
never hired me to work on any other projects with this company or any
others, and my wife certainly has never signed my checks.

I earn a good living as a freelance writer for various publishers. I
also earn a good living as a webmaster. That's two quite respectable
income streams that I created for myself through hard work and pluck.
I've always been a self-starter.

I've been self-employed since 1985. I started my first business as a
desktop publisher, using the very first version of Pagemaker. I was
making money with a computer at the dawn of personal computing and
desktop publishing. I did that for several years and then I decided to
become a freelance computer tech. I taught myself and passed the
certification tests to become a Novell Certified Netware Engineer,
Microsoft Certified Professional, as well as A+ and Network+
certifications from CompTIA. With those certifications and the
experience that followed, I became a freelance Network Engineer.

I made a very good living supporting small businesses, but I left that
behind when I became successful as a webmaster and freelance writer. So,
I've been able to do things that most people can only dream of doing and
I've been at it for over 20 years now. I couldn't have kept going
through the lean times without the support of my wife, but my wife is
nobody's fool and she isn't carrying me in any way either

In contrast, this Kook does not now, and never will, earn any income,
because he is apparently content to live on handouts; something he has
in common with all of the other Kooks.


Ever read Steinbeck, and the bio which he wrote at the
same time describing those colorful characters?
Guess not.

Kenny aint Steinbeck. And attempting to compare Kennys toilet stories
to what Steinbeck wrote

No one was comparing my work to Steinbeck's--except this Kook.

If Kennys 'work' was something that ended up as something more then
paper that ppl use when they run outta Charmin,

Ah, but they have. It is great to see my writing being republished in
other media, because it shows that my work has at least some degree of
universal appeal. Here are three articles I wrote that were good enough
to be republished on audio CDs. There are links on these pages to mp3s
that were ripped from those CDs:

http://agilewriter.com/Biography/NellieBly.htm
http://agilewriter.com/Biography/JacobRiis.htm

One can read along as they listed to the audio and see how my articles
were edited for publication.

Here are two articles I wrote that were good enough to be republished in
a magazine:

"Prince of Humbugs"
The original:
http://agilewriter.com/Biography/Barnum.htm
The reprint:
http://baltimore.smartceo.com/images/archImages/AUG2004.PDF
pages 64-65

"Banker for the Little Guy"
The original:
http://agilewriter.com/Biography/Giannini.htm
The reprint:
http://baltimore.smartceo.com/images/archImages/SEPT03.PDF
page 62

I could cite many other examples of my writing, but since these Kooks
have attempted to get me fired many times already, I'd be crazy to
provide any other examples of my work that would lead them to any of the
other publishers I work for. The above examples and the rest of my
portfolio at http://agilewriter.com are ample proof that everything the
Kooks say about my freelance writing is a pack of lies.

Care to share any of your accomplishments with the group, troll-boy? Oh
wait, I guess you can't do that because you're afraid of what might
happen if you tell too much about yourself. You wouldn't want to leave
yourself open to the same kinds of attacks that you visit upon others.
That would never do.
