She's a boy!

Bloody hell. On the front page of the Dominion Post today was an article uncovering the real bizgirl.

That is, Natalie is a bloke.

It's news because the blog won the Netguide Best Personal Blog award at an award ceremony last night. The audience was expecting it to be collected by a girl in a slinky dress (she does after all call herself "international librarian of mystery") and was more than a little surprised when a very male-looking person claimed it.

I always thought it was suspicious that someone on a mere librarian salary could afford to dress herself in World.

Great fiction-writing, eh?

darth said...

really good writing...but hard to say where he goes from here, no?

Well Darth, judging by his latest post-outing post, he's carrying on as before. And I'll do my best to suspend disbelief.

yeah, will probably continue. I only ever did it for fun, and I don't think the pleasure of writing will be diluted by people knowing the truth behind it all.

We shall though - I'm taking a couple of days off to let the dust settle, and will re-evaluate after that.

cheers,

James/Natalie.
