In the comments there, veejane, icecreamempress, vom_marlowe, and others speculated with great fail about my life." [3][citation dead link]

When I googled “[redacted] coffeeandink” to be sure I remembered it correctly, it came up in the first few hits, probably because “she “outed” herself” long ago." [6] [citation dead link] For many years, Coffeeandink used her distinctive first name as her user name on her LiveJournal, and she was so casual about using her last name in public posts about her work and her convention appearances that K. Tempest Bradford linked Coffeeandink's legal and LiveJournal names at Fantasy Magazine. [7]
