Hence my comment. Try ATA, if you don't think alerts will work. A callout doesn't have to mention a name to be a callout. You know that, too. Those posts were all different in content. There's no rule on DU prohibiting multiple posts, each with different content.
You said you didn't alert, and can't think of anything to alert on. My suggestion in that case is to do nothing at all. Cryptic callouts are not the answer. I can't see how it matters that someone posted several different stories in the Good Reads forum.
My suggestion is to either alert, if you think there are grounds for an alert, or just leave it alone. Just a suggestion. Many people on DU post multiple posts daily.
Just a suggestion, of course.
