What am I?

July 29th, 2010
Posted by: admin

I have been on here for a long time now, and I see all sorts of different labels thrown about. So I will ask you more experienced regulars what you would say I am.

I am human. (Despite my avatar)
I am a writer. I write primarily famtasy, with a bit of romance and horror thrown in.
I am a woman, studying in a Catholic college to be a Spanish teacher.
I believe in the power of the Four Elements, and the joining power of Spirit.
I believe that almost all things have a soul.
I believe in the Big Bang, and evolution. I believe the Elemental Spirits developed as the world did, and they are probably different on other planets.
I believe it is mathematically impossible that we are the only planet with life on it.
I believe animals are people too.
I grew up a poor white girl in the Twin Cities, Minnesota.
I am a bookworm.
Most importantly, I believe Love is All That Matters.

If I think of anything else, I will add that too. Thanks for your imput.
Don’t worry; jb_freq is my husband and I have called him. *sigh* This is what happens when a person forgets their cellphone…

How do I go about prosecuting someone for selling illegal copies of my popular book?

July 7th, 2010

I recently found 3 people selling illegal copies of my popular book for $5. My book sells for $50. I know who they are as I have their home information etc from when they purchased by book and asked for refunds. They are using Paypal and I contacted Paypal several times with this issue with no help at all. They are also allowing funds to mailed to them. Any help would be very appreciated!
They bought it, make illegal downloadable copies, then asked for refunds.

What happens with money when minors publish a book?

June 27th, 2010

Hi. My friend and I are writing a book which we’re planning on getting published. Problem is, we’re both 15, and since we definately don’t trust her mom, we’re a little more than concerned about what happens with the money as we’re both minors. We’re wondering if it’s actually given to us, if it’s given to our parents until we turn 18, or if it’s set aside in an account until we turn 18. Any answers would be extremely appreciated, as we’re almost done with writing out the first draft.
