Hugo's Saturday booksigning reminder

Later: It was a very pleasant signing - some nice chats with the readers. Hugo's now has a large stack of signed "Penric's Mission" available, for mail order or in-store. And most of the rest of my titles, also signed.

Just a reminder, I will be signing at Uncle Hugo's Science Fiction Bookstore at 1 PM to 2 PM Saturday Dec. 9th -- tomorrow, as I type this.

Derek So bummed I had to miss this. Weddings! Hopefully you'll be doing something locally again soon.

Derek Yeah. Make sure to flag it.

Yes, clearly not a reader, clearly scammish.

I have the power to delete it, and a bunch of others from a couple of recurring addresses that look like someone smashed their forehead into their keyboard, and I keep wondering if I should, or if that would just encourage them.

On the other hand, I do get messages in uncertain English from total strangers that are legitimate. It's a puzzle.

Flagging might well be a middle way, or at least make it someone else's problem. What actually happens when you flag something?

Derek AFAIK, someone from GoodReads is supposed to review it. When you click on the Flag link it asks you for some information, and before you submit it you get a dialog box in your browser saying that GoodReads takes flagging things very seriously and to only flag it if you're sure. Which I was - if any attempt had been made at talking about your books or the subject matter of this post I would not have been.

However, that's the first time I've flagged something on here, so I don't know what their actual resolution process is. Perhaps more flags = higher priority, so if everyone who sees it flags it perhaps it will get taken care of sooner? I assume that, like most places, they will also ban the account responsible - not that creating another is difficult but it would hopefully slow the scammer down.
