Thanks, Anna. You are a fount of information, and continually amaze me with your knowledge [g].
How does one block a person on FB? Is it a complicated process? Because I think I'd feel a lot more comfortable there if I didn't have to deal with this fellow. ETA: Never mind. I figured out the blocking process. What I didn't figure out is how to tell which of the half dozen people with this fellow's name is the correct person, since I don't have his email address and, so far as I know, I don't have any way of getting hold of it. I suppose I can just block all of them...
If you want to be there to promote your discoverability as a writer (which is a useful thing to think about), it's worth it to have some public, active presence there, even if it's just 'here are links to things I post on my blog, and here are regular announcements about my projects'.
That's exactly what I've been doing with it up till about a week ago, when I decided to see what's going on over there. I think that's what I'm going to go back to. So blocking the guy may be overkill, but it still would make me feel better.
What I wish is that the people I'd like to stay in touch with would quit abandoning LJ/DW for that place [sigh].
