People downloading my stories from the bit torrent sites were never going to buy them anyway. It's no money out of my pocket.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Before I had a steady job, I was broke, and I didn't have any money to buy anything, so I would illegally download stuff.
One of the things that drives me crazy is the belief in Hollywood that bittorrent exists solely for stealing things.
When the money dries up, the sites die off. That's the way to go after piracy.
I've got five or six unpublished stories kicking around looking for somebody to buy them.
We lose stories every day because they drift out of use and into the vast limbo of in-copyright, out-of-print books whose ownership is unclear.
I got a couple of stories published, but the kind of money you were making for publishing a short story, I could see I wasn't going to make a living at it.
My grandchildren will be making money from the stories I write and sell as eBooks because they will continue to be making money.
You can't throw money at the Internet to make it work - it really is all about the quality of the content.
My stories are never quite good enough.
I don't want to steal anybody's story. I very much want to use the stories that I hear to get lost in my mind, to tell a larger story.
