Nice profile, I'll fill out an official FFnet plea for beta-form the next time when I feel the need to bother you with my assortment of mistakes. ;D No way, you gotta send them directly so I can gobble as soon as they're ready to come! (and you notice that none of the ranting had anything to do with your stories, cos you're far better at those things like character consistency & canon than I am!) Your 'slashes' are just right! ;D I'm waiting until someone points out that I should be shot for my over-indulgence in ellipses... ;D and therefore have no business offering to beta anything, let alone claiming to know how to punctuate.

So ever since Mr. Shy got this from someone a few days ago, we've been debating if it's 'real,' or someone's idea of a spoof. Having spent some time spoofing FFN over the past few years, I think it's a gag, but having spent his time molding impressionable young (and not so young) college students, Mr. Shy isn't so sure. At any rate, Mr. Shy did some investigating and says it was put out by a self-publishing firm, which tells us absolutely nothing. Whatever it is, it's funny, but even better are the reviews on Amazon(dot)com, done in the true spirit of the book itself. See what you think: the reviews may be found by following the customer review link (doh!) at the top of the page at www.amazon.com/Moon-People-Dale-M-Courtney/dp/1436372135/(Edited to add just one review, to whet your appetite: "This book is Beautifully written with many Words. Now this is not the same type of Book as many other books its real good. I read it 1 then 2 then 3 time's and each Time was real good. Now I don't usually identify with books but this Book is real good and seems like it is just the type of book that I Like.") So go enjoy!!!

Ok, so I started reading other reviews, right? I got to this one. So I'm thinking, all this people are mocking it, right? It's false...so I checked other reviews from the same person... Soooo...it's either not a joke, or this guy's idea of fun is really twisted...
