Yes, I am the original author and am sharing my blog from a few years ago. I can assure you, nobody else would have tolerated this. If it is a problem, I won't add part two when the coastguard found me.
Thank you for clarifying that. We have quite a bit of plagiarism, catfishing and even ID theft here. If your username had been similar we would have asked for verification instead. If you decide to post a lot of articles from your blog, you may want to consider it.
Verification can be as simple as posting to your website or blog. If you use twitter or facebook, you can also create a tweet or post there. For our easily recognizable Steemians, a photo with you holding a piece of paper with the time & date will suffice.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank You! ☙
I shall post a comment on the blog with a pic tomorrow for steemit.
sorry for the confusion and glad you're keeping it all in order.
Thanks for understanding. ☙
