Amanda the real human talking here: Hey, so I have started to see people take my course and workshops, and re-use my words and ideas (and jokes and metaphors) as their own. It is not enough to simply tag me—please credit all of my ideas and work appropriately. If all else fails, quote me! Cite your sources! I worked hard to come up with ways to think about this stuff that is original and memorable.
