Finally! The identity of RealPeteRollins revealed
Some of you may know that around 6 months ago a twitter account started up called 'RealPeteRollins'. This was then followed up with a facebook page a few months later. Since that time I often get asked the question, "who is this RealPeteRollins". Well my guess is as good as anyone's, but I do have my suspicions… and if I am honest I think it might be me.
I have no way to prove it of course but there are hints. For example, recently I wrote the following message,
I am trying to think of the main conferences, festivals, Universities and Seminaries that I should try and target. Places that would help to get the message out. Trying to think of the main ones only… any suggestions?
Shortly after RealPeteRollins wrote,
Trying to think of conferences festivals Universities & Seminaries I should target. Places where I would sell most books. No time wasters
I don't know about you, but the first message strikes me as deeply disingenuous. It seems to be a mask that hides a more insidious truth… a truth that is perhaps revealed by the RealPeteRollins. Now, as you might expect, I very much protest RealPeteRollins' intepretation of my words. IN NO WAY did I mean what he implied. But then again I would say that as it is obvious that my twitter, facebook, and website, are mere propaganda machines that pretend to offer you an insight into me while ensuring I remain hidden behind an idealized image. I hide myself in my public profile while the womaniser, Buckfast drinker and chat roulette master RealPeteRollins courageously speaks (occasionally) my truth.
As such I sometimes get the feeling that there is more 'me' in the RealPeteRollins twitter and facebook accounts than in my own and thus perhaps, if you would like to know me better, you will find more insight there (not to mention the more recent addition to this entangled world - rip0ff_ikon).
