You're presuming that Lucinda reads my page constantly. Probably not. She likes my guitar videos and probably reads some of it, but nobody reads all of it unless they're gathering intelligence or secretly in love with me.

Justin, all I can say is I feel that it was targeted at me.

And it's not like they've ever reached out to say that it wasn't an intentional attack. I think they're embarrassed, much as they're embarrassed to find out the real reason I was thinking of Chloe again and feeling insecure in myself is that I got assaulted.


As far as I can tell, a few people in Wellington thought they could use my movie script for their gain, and hence spent years attempting to persuade me to do it.
