    haha!
    "Yer a wizard, Selbbin."

    I got a YA novel. That's actually a pretty good cover. Clearly self-pubbed, but vibrant. Purple's my favorite color.

    Whew! It's alright. Not how I would have done it, but it seems safely competent.

    Got an article about petrified wood and a bunch of shop listings from gem auctions, not that surprised.

    1st attempt: Showing results for Trafalgar: A tour agency, the historic battle, and an anime character.
    2nd attempt: Search instead for
    Travalgar: Paraphernalia for said anime character, only misspelled.

    I just get endless iterations of me. Me here, me on FB, my blog(s).

    Of course, that's because I created this pen name very carefully and did a lot of research. When you omit "passchendale" because Google refused to believe I can spell, there was only one result for "Aschendale" when I created the name, a forum post with a drawing of some kind of mecha that they'd named "aschendale." Other than that, the world was a blank slate for my name, so I took it. Ditto with "Lake Vostok Yacht Club," there was a single angelfire post or the equivalent that predated me thinking of it, so I took that too ;)

    I got a "wikipedia" entry saying "hammer is a tool"

    Sheesh, everyone's a critic!

    I got a 1981 horror slasher movie. No big surprise there.

    I got a fashion company that champions female-owned brands started by a former Gap Inc. retail exec.

    And a link to some fun games you can play with just paper and pencil. Dots and boxes, tic tac toe, a game I've never heard of named sim, pictionary, paper telephone, bulls and cows, sprout, and battleship among others.

    Vince Higgins is a pen name, but common enough I got a lot of hits for Facebook and LinkedIn profiles. The most interesting was IMDB, but it turned out to be only one credit.

    I got a story about reporter who shares her journey with PTSD. Appropriate for my writing here.
