I couldn't resist sharing:
The boss is in Acapulco till February or March, and he left me in charge till his return.
I am not going to remove the listing.
The listing does not contain any copyrighted information--and you know it, unless you know nothing about copyrights. The listing contains only publicly available information or fair-use snippets.
You called at 2:05 A.M.. At about the same time, you sent the same email message from the contact page many times. Obviously, you have your panties in a knot. You can't tell me that you do ordinary business at 2:05 A.M.. I think you were having a snit fit. Put away your dog-eared copy of PORTNOY'S COMPLAINT, get off the toilet, and calm down.
Generally, literary agents are pea-brained, teeny-weeny, anally retentive, third-grade microcephalic morons who can't write or think worth a cat's turd. They use the equivalents of Cliffs Notes to judge the writings and intellects of others--because their own minds can't encompass anything larger than a short note. They think they are hot shit on golden platters, though they are cold turds on paper plates. I am sure that none of this applies to you--I am mentioning these literary-agent traits only to clarify why I am not disposed to react "kindly" to an agent's rudeness.
Perhaps later, when I have forgotten your rudeness, I will emend the listing to say that you do not accept queries. In the meantime, you should quit pestering me about this tempest in a teapot that is stirring and intoxicating you.
For Christ's sake--or, more likely, Yahweh's--don't worry about the appearance of publicly available information on the Internet.
Shalom,
Kim Servasso
