It annoys me from a compositional perspective. It’s not like I’m taking credit for Sonnet 29. I’m taking credit for the post. And I suspect there are places like TechMeme that hook into that author function, and if I suppress it in WordPress’s “Loop” then it is removed from all posts, so I can’t make Sonnet 29 look good without stripping the attribution I value from other posts, all of which are driven by that loop template.
What to do?
I think I need a non-attribution category that I can use for stylistic porpoises exclusively. Where’s my web clark? get your sleeve garters on and get in here and update the template, damn-it!

Hi Frank. You can always create another author account in WordPress and then post under that author. If that is too tedious because you have a lot of different guest posters, you can at least create a generic “Guest” account, and post under that to avoid at least the misattribution.
Thanks Gabe. I think that’s the answer.
