Sometime during 2005-2006 she disappeared and took the fics down with her. Her fics are often asked after in SGA storyfinders, but she contacted the mods and threatened to report the community to lj abuse if any post requesting her fics wouldn't be taken down. (the mods decided to allow requests for private e-mail sends.) Allegedly she has also made known that she would report to LJ anyone requesting her fics.
First, report for what? For just requesting a file transfer action that could hardly be classifeid as illegal file sharing? Does this woman really think that after she has published something in the net, the material would simply disappear for her say so?
And second, why all this? The only reason I could think of is that she has a book deal for original fiction and she would now try to be preventative when it's lready too late. Still, I googled her and I didin't find anything that would suggest that she would be a writer, with the same name or another.
Anyone knows the history in this?
