Time: September 25, 2008, 1:51 pmI would appreciate it if you would in future desist from using my name in your stories- I’m getting fed up of my name now being an item on peoples tee shirts!!! Or perhaps I could get royalties for your use of my name??
With people entering contests to name the ships and celebrating their appearances in my stories, apparently I picked the name of somebody who doesn’t appreciate being made a heroine.
Go figger.
