Well, it seems weird to me that Reader wouldn't respect friendslock but the main search engine seems to. I've never had an issue with f-locked entries being posted up there.
there's a difference between, "Agh, I hate doing copy-edits," and "Agh, I hate my copy-editor."
Agreed, and if your copy editor read that, I'm sure they would understand and even agree that copy editing can be a bit of a chore at times. Especially since they do it all day. :)
I keep telling myself that an agent could probably be sympathetic to me saying, "Wow, queries take a long time, I'm really anxious to hear back" and know that it's not the same as: "ZOMG! Agent So-and-So takes such a long time to get back, I hate him/her!"

But it still makes me a bit nervous, though.
