Sorry, Robert, but that justification only works for spam.

You have no marketing plan, other than to treat fiction sites as free advertising hoardings. As with many other sites, this is simply not acceptable on chronicles.

Your constant stream of emails telling me how right you are, how wrong I am, and how much chronicles suffers for not advertising your work make for interesting reading - but I think underline the fact that your attitude is your worst enemy.

You would do well to address your general rudeness, because all it does it alienate people.
