"All the Stones the Builders Rejected" (And some days it takes more Stones than others...) Where Mythical Bestiary meets Contemporary Culture and Chews On Its Leg Until Covered with Slobber.
My First Plagiarist
I don't mind that someone called "tortugo23" posted something I wrote to People's Health and Fitness; I do object to being quoted at length without a link or at least a byline. I wrote "Jung's Tower and Personal Mythology" back in 1982, first as a term paper for a psychology class, then as a misguided effort to get something published in Parabola, lastly as a three-part blog entry, hoping it might find the one or two people out of six billion who might be interested in Jung's "metaphor made of stone".

I am very sorry to hear about what happened. I don't know if I would link to the article though as that kind of search engine attention is what they're craving. It seems, to me, to be a spam blog and was likely taken from those entries you posted.
If you want my help clearing this up, just shoot me an email and I'll see what I can do! It should be trivial though since it is hosted on Wordpress.com and they don't take these issues lightly!
Thanks so much! As I said, I don't mind being quoted at length if they'd just give a nod for my original effort. Technorati found this one, and I'm guessing it was done with ignorance of net etiquette instead of malice.
