One of our blog readers mentioned in this comment that Miranda hasn’t been active in her normal bully circle for almost a week now:
I totally hear you, JBG. The woman doesn’t even have any friends left, the one’s commenting on her Booklikes thread are only there to enjoy the wank, not because they particularly like Angela. –No one– likes Angela.
I don’t think even Miranda herself likes Angela anymore, considering Miranda’s only posted once on the BBA Whisperer thread, posted one time in 4 days or longer.
This prompted another one of our readers to send us some new evidence that Miranda and Angela are actually the same person, as you can see in the comment I left for Cynical:
We were given new evidence that Miranda IS Angela. Check it:
Our blog reader said that when she put the link to Miranda’s Twitter account into Facebook and then did the same to Angela’s Bijou Hunter Twitter account, the same picture popped up.
Thoughts, anyone?

So does this mean that the Bijou Hunter books are really written by an angry Dutch chick from Rotterdam or that a California housewife is impersonating an angry Dutch chick on the internet? Suspense!
Lol!
Her books are horrible. A friend read one and said it was the worst piece of trash she’d ever read. Said it was so amateur it made her want to throw the Kindle across the room.
Wow.
At one point, I was wondering about this possibility, too. Miranda’s the only one AH gets along with 100% of the time, aside from Amanda [who’s only there to try to fit in, because she doesn’t fit in anywhere else]. Seems funny, doesn’t it? Also, AH has 3 different pictures for her 3 different pen names, and she looks to be different ages in every photo. She seems to be good at taking on different personae … hint, hint.
I’ve always wondered about this. I noticed that Angela accuses everyone else of owning socks and you know what that means. Liars are the first to call someone else a liar. The one who smelt it dealt it. Guilt has very quick ears to an accusation. You get the picture.
“When one person makes an accusation, check to be sure he himself is not the guilty one. Sometimes it is those whose case is weak who make the most clamour.”

Now you’ve got me wondering: If Angela for some reason disappeared from the Internet, how many trolls would disappear in all? Two? Ten? Fifty?
Angela says “I’m always amused when asshats whine and draw attention to their bad behavior that’s remained on the DL. I almost want to send them thank you baskets.
”
Ditto there, Angela.
And over 24 hours later, still no mention of your and Miranda’s [or “Mirangela’s”] new blog. The only mention of it was a smokescreen or two. Niiiiiiice try, Mirangela.
She doesn’t have enough money to send people thank you baskets. Have you seen her book sales? Poor thing. If only she were a better writer. Maybe that’s why she feels the need to attack other authors.
I’ve heard that her pen name “Bijou Hunter” makes good sales, unless those sales have plummeted since then. I’ve seen the price on her books, and we’re talking $10 for an Ebook! That’s almost as much as a traditionally published author’s book. I was thinking that surely readers weren’t lining her pockets with that much cash! She isn’t a very good writer for one thing, and for another, she’s a total [insert name here].
I always wondered why she acts the way she does. I think she’s missing something very basic in her personality. Either that, or she’s missing a heart, and I can’t see how anyone like that could possibly be a good writer. It takes a certain amount of emotion in the author to convey that in their writing. Without it, the writing falls flat.
It’s quite sad, if you think about it, and if she has any followers left, then they’re as sad as she is, and just as heartless.
This brings to mind the reason why a lot of her followers, who are aspiring authors, don’t try to publish books. I think they’re afraid they’ll be treated as badly as -they- treat authors who were brave enough to publish. They know in their “hearts” the same thing could happen to them, and because of that, they’d rather stay miserable and unpublished, and take their frustrations out on real authors.
Nope. She’s not making that much money. Bijou Hunter’s first book in her series hangs out at around 11,000 paid in the kindle store and is selling for 99 cents. Her book’s ranking is lower than mine, meaning mine is selling more than hers, and I know how much I make in the store, only mine sells at $2.99. Judging by the sales of my book, her sales of this book alone is around 200 books sold per month, and I’m being generous with that number. 30% of 200 times 99 cents works out to be $60 a month. She has another book like this one as well and I’ll be generous and say that it sells twice as much at 99 cents. Bijou Hunter’s other books are sold at 2.99 and the sales rankings show that they sell anywhere between 30 and 50 each a month. So let’s take the best case scenario for her. 70% of 50 times 2.99 = 100 each book each month. At most, she’s making 120 + 60 + 3*100 = $480 a month. That’s below poverty level. So don’t worry. She’s not making as much money as she claims.

Aw, her sales are adorable. I make about 3 to 4 times the amount she does on her best month. And she’s bragging about being a bestseller? Did I see someone say that?
You were pretty close, AM.
Whatever you do, don’t take the sales on NovelRank as gospel. They are only an estimate, and not a good one.
haha, I was wondering! Oh and congrats, anony Moustache, for your great sales! I’m glad someone like her isn’t selling as well as I thought [or as well as she makes herself out to be] because she doesn’t deserve good sales.
It’s wonderful that at least one follower of STGRB is selling so well!
I read the sample of one of her books and rolled my eyes. If she’s an author, then I’m George Clooney, even with my paunch, lack of charm, and bald head.
Author and reader – congrats to you too, for your sales!
Yeah, I’m pretty sure Angela has bragged about being a bestselling author.
Then she’s a liar. But we knew that already!
Mirangela hasn’t updated her booklikes or Twitter in a week. All Angela posts about is free books, she’s done this for the last week or two.
Something wrong, Mirangela?
Oh no, she’s just busy with her new Unmask Goodreads Bullies website. 😀 After that, she’ll be back to her usual stalking, harassing, hacking, and general online mischief making. Don’t worry.
So true, Anon. ::lol::
LMAO!! “Mirangela”
Unfortunately, if we combined the many sockpuppet names of other notorious bullies they’d wind up longer than the alphabet.
Most certainly true!
I’ve often wondered if Angela H. is behind many of the trolls on GR and other places. All it takes is one extremely unhinged wackadoodle with too much time on her hands to wreak havoc on the net.
