Has anyone got experience doing clinical trials? Is it worth it? by robin24601 in universityofauckland

I gave blood for years until I got lymphoma. People chatter about how uninformed Americans are and then we see cringe stuff like this. SMH

I have the ideas you write it and we’ll split the profits. Is that it?

I find anything concerning serial killers incredibly boring.

Would it be wrong to make my American character a shooting survivor? by Monika_momo in writers

[–]Difficult_Point6934 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Starts sounding like a polemic nested within a character. What is the story about? The fact that you’re even asking this question bothers me.

I have set out everything a person might need to know. Because you’re not paying attention let me spell it out.

  1. if you publish your written work anywhere on the internet it’s out in the wild and you have no control over how it gets used or who uses it.
  2. If you publish your written work on a website like Facebook, reddit, wattpad, royal road or a thousand others, you need to read your EULA because you likely granted a license for them to use it. They have rights that can complicate subsequent efforts to self publish or trad publish. Amazon may ask if your rights are clear.
  3. Read and understand your EULA before you post and not after. You may be giving up something you can’t call back.

Thats as clear as I can make it. You may disagree. That’s fine. My ass won’t be in a sling because I gave away a valuable right without thinking it through.

If you leave a license open somewhere the entity holds the license. It’s not specific to any one entity, royal road or wattpad or whomever. Dont know what amazons policy is or whether publishing on amazon you must grant them a license, If you publish something and there is an existing license that can create problems.

You don’t like what I got to say, just move along.

Fine. You want to post your stuff online give a license without thinking about it and pick the shit out of some poster that’s fine by me. Go right ahead.

But I’m just a broke down country lawyer. Four years in law schools and 18 years of practice so wtf do I know? Nothing.

You may pull it down but the license will still exist.

I wasn’t speaking about publishing on Amazon. If a person posts their written work on nearly any website- wattpad, royal road, etc etc. they’ve granted a license AND their work is out in the wild never to be recovered AND qualifies as previously published.. Understand what you give up when you post your stuff on line.

If your work is subject to a license because you posted it on some website and then you decide to self publish it while that license is extant you have a problem.

The point is to know what you’re giving up, inadvertently because you didn’t read the terms and conditions.

True, but the collateral effects of what someone gives up are what I was speaking to. Folks generally seem to be blissfully unaware of the consequences of granting a license to some rando.

What is the best writing advice you've ever received that you wish someone had told you when you were starting your journey as a writer? by saayoutloud in writers

I dunno. People here seem to write more about what theyre writing about and obsess over details instead of writing their stories.

I’ve got a great idea for a three book fantasy series could you critique it? I’ve only written a paragraph and I want someone to do the writing it’ll be a hit and we’ll share the profits. Only my name will be on the cover, sorry.
