Copper Cockeral Cards & Gifts

I'd like to meet:

WHY DID I SEND YOU A FRIEND REQUEST?:

Because I thought you sounded like someone I'd like to network with. By that I mean you sounded like (judging from your profile page, that is; or from your comments on one of the groups here on MySpace) someone I would like to meet.

WHO I WOULD LIKE TO MEET:

I love making new friends. Always look forward to meeting new people in cyberspace. I'm looking to network with the following types of people, so if you come under this list, go ahead and send me a friend request:

This is a family friendly family run business, and I will be keeping our friend's list here on MySpace the same, so please keep that in mind before sending a friend request.

Other artists who sell their designs through such places as CafePress and Zazzle.

When not running Copper Cockeral I am writing books, so I'd love to network with other authors, writers, readers, libraries, book stores, editors, artists, illustrators, publishers, magazines, agents, reviewers, book collectors, and other people in the publishing industry who like to read/write/create gothic, horror, fantasy, science fiction, adventure, mystery, gothic romance, children's books, comic books, and most other type books too.

Other people in the greeting card and/or t-shirt business. Crafty-type people, farmers, small home businesses, and other such folks here on MySpace.

People who love faeries, phookas, sirens, alien worlds, mermaids, unicorns, fairy tale princesses, wizards, furries, sci-fi, fantasy, ufos, paranormal, vampires, and dark fantasy.

Anyone who is creative: writers, artists, fashion designers, doll makers, and other such people, etc.

People involved in saving/rescueing animals. Others who like me are vegan animal-rights activists. Members of PETA, WWF, Greenpeace, and all other such groups. People who love birds, roosters, bantams, cats, and eels. Anyone who devotes their life to making this world a better place. EVERYONE who loves poultry, cats, bobcats, or eels and well stop at nothing to protect them. All those who love the ocean and it's wonderful creatures.

Send me a friend request if you are a member of The American Bantam Association, or other such poultry or avian group/club.

People who like me, love the ocean, love sand and surf, and beaches and waves, and the salt air, and smell of seaweed after a storm, and pier-fries with vinager... and oh yeah, if you live anywhere along Maine's amazing, beautiful, wonderful coast, and if you think that the coast of Maine is Heaven on Earth, than send me a request.

People who love all ocean life, both real and fictional: from eels and stingrays to mermaids and sirens, and all who will do anything to protect our wounderful oceans.

I love books with faeries in them. I esp love books with water faeries (sirens, mermaids, kelpies, silkies, etc.) in them, both children's and adult's books. Mermaids & Sirens are my fave fearie-type creatures. If you are a writer of such books, send me a request and also post a comment telling me about your book, I'd love to read it.

Brian Froud is the god of fearie authors and faerie artists... if you are a fellow fan of his books, his art, or his 2 movies (Labyrinth & The Dark Crystal), or if you write books or paint art like his, than I'd love to add you to my friends list, as well.

If you drive a Peugeot 505, send me a friend request (and an IM telling me so)... it is so hard to find fellow fans of the Peugeot 505 these days.

Oh yeah, and one more thing...

Who Are You, Anyway? I love adding new folks to my friends list, but I'd love it more if I hear from you as well. If you're on or want to be on my friends list, send me a comment and tell me about yourself and why you asked to be my friend. I love picture and glitter graphic comments, so feel free to send me a new one every day! (I do send comments back in responce to comments I get.) Added note: While I love comments and read them daily, it may be several weeks before I read my inbox messages; like email, I only check my messages once a month.)

EXTRA NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS:

Yes, I love to get them. Yes I love to read books. Yes, I love to hear that you have just released a new book. Yes, by all means, send me a comment with info about your book. I'm always looking for new books to read, who knows, yours just might be the next one I pick. I always love to promote books, so writers are more than welcomed to use my comment box to promote their books with.

1) No Porn... any profiles with porn get zapped quicker than anything else (and reported, because porn is not allowed on MySpace.) If your profile is set to private due to mature/adult content (yes, MySpace sends a message with your request, telling me that that is the reason it is set to private), it'll be denied.

2) No spam... this meaning "take this survy and make millions!" type of profiles. (these are also reported as these are also not allowed on MySpace)

3) If you are linking back to porn or spam, I won't report you, but I will deny you.

4.) If you are on my friends list and than suddenly you aren't anymore, ask yourself this: how many comments/IMs/emails did you send me asking me to take a survy to make millions? If the answer was more than one, than, yep, I blocked you and reported you. One such comment from you is ok, but 5 or 6 each and every day is getting pretty annoying, esp when 10 or 20 people are each sending 4 or 5 a day. Not smart on your part. :(

5.) I'm an animal rights activist, if your profile promoted hunting, trapping, or otherwise harming and maiming animals, than that's why you were denied.

I've had to delete several comments because of there "porn graphics" nature; I also delete all the ringtone, survy, refinance, MLM, get-rich-quick, are-you-tired-of-being-single, check-out-my-adult-photos, and other spammy type posts.

In responce to all those and future comments like them I have this to say:

Nope, I don't care to have a sexy afternoon, a normal one will do just fine, thank you. Besides, didn't you read my profile? You're sending your porn star girly pics to a straight female! What would I want with those? You really want to wish me a sexy weelend? Send me pictures of C*C*DeVille.

I do not own a phone, nor do I own a cellphone. I have no phonenumber, no one calls me, because there is no phone to call me on, and I'm not likely to ever own a phone at any time in the future either, as I really do not see the need to have one. So no I have no need for a thousand and one free ringtones.

When I first started useing the internet in 1997, I took about 40 suries a day, I did that for several months... I never saw a single penny for my trouble. Taking survies for money is a scam... send me links to them only if you want me to delete you off my friend's list.

Only a fool would jepodizes his home by refinancing it. Have no debt and you will have no worries.

If you want me to join a Multi-Level-Marketing program, you had better be offering me an exectutive office with a view of the ocean, full medical, and a salary of at least $45 per hour, to be one of the CEO of the corperation. I only want to be on the top level of MLM, so if you are offering one of the lower levels, than you can take your offer and jump off a cliff, cause I don't want it.

Sure, I'd love to get rich quick! Who wouldn't? But I want to get rich by work a 100% real live career, not by spamming people to death, so, nope, sorry, no deals.

Nope, I'm not tired of being single. I have yet to see one single happy couple, so nope, I'll just stick to writing books about fictional guys and wait to meet one of them in the next life, preferibly Etiole.

My, my, my...did you not know that adult photos are not alowed on mySpace... well, I guess I'll just have to forward your comment to Tom!
