The post was shared, and is credited to me under the pictures. Just for the record. And here I let it die.

Someone on my Facebook group who is a member of Mansions posted about the house. No mention of you or the other group, which I am sorry about. If I had known the info came from you I would have credited you, as I have done in the past regarding some of my Skylands posts.

I was not aware of this post you had written which is why you did not (and will not) receive credit for it. It was not "lifted" from you. Almost all of this information was available on the realtor's website. I've decided to publish the link to your facebook paragraph regardless.ANDREW RITCHIEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07527048900781045398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768882.post-23244547366665947322016-02-08T23:23:35.531-05:002016-02-08T23:23:35.531-05:00I would be more impressed with what another poster...I would be more impressed with what another poster refers to as your "Martha KNowledge", if a significant amount of the research weren't lifted almost verbatim from a facebook post I did about this house the previous day, after being given a tour by the realtor---along with a couple of original photographs and the garden plan. I know the ethical lines blur in social media, but it is never good policy to use the work of others as your own without proper credit, no matter the venue.<br /><br />https://www.facebook.com/groups/mansionsofthegildedage/permalink/975649539122754/The Down East Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13950254669198151850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768882.post-74754158943027707262015-08-21T23:30:02.968-05:002015-08-21T23:30:02.968-05:00The home is beautiful, and I would be pleased to o...The home is beautiful, and I would be pleased to own it.......just a little short on the down payment ( Oh yes, also the taxs and monthly mortgage)<br />I will say it is interesting how different ( from Slyland) the feel is with the different decor . While it is beautiful and somewhat denotes a summer residence it in no way is equal to Ms Stewart's mix of formal , casual, experimental and " fun" interpretation of the decor at Skyland. <br />APM<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768882.post-46535368040925718342015-08-19T11:11:10.912-05:002015-08-19T11:11:10.912-05:00Thanks for a great story.

And I thought I was a superfan! :) Now we need a campaign to get all the episodes of Martha's old shows (the beautiful perfect years - not the show with the audience!) on DVD. I think that anthology would be amazing. I'm constantly looking up old clips on her site.

It's run by me (Andrew Ritchie) a fan in Canada. I think we'll have to wait and see what direction Martha takes now that her company has been sold. This is new territory! Thanks for writing!

Tired of all the stone in every home.<br /><br />Now that you sold your company, where will you be - the real Martha. Still running the company I know. This blog I hope is yours and not an assistant running it. <br /><br />The Facebook page has your name as the profile photo but not your photo. Is the new company going to sort of phase Martha out and turn your name into the representation instead of you? I think your followers are here for you and your face not just the idea of you. <br /><br />Would love to make a ton of money on stock if I only knew the next Google and could live like the vegan, animal sanctuary owner, Martha Stewart of Oregon. <br /><br />♥Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15237936472627819311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768882.post-10208178909418489432015-08-15T15:41:01.711-05:002015-08-15T15:41:01.711-05:00Beautiful architecture, breathtaking view and amaz...Beautiful architecture, breathtaking view and amazing neighbor, Martha<br />Love it AndrewRowaidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03204354226986835316noreply@blogger.com
