Also, there are authors and publicists using the Internet to manipulate opinion, both positively for a work and negatively against the competition. I don't do this and can't stomach it, honestly.

The idea of copyright did not exist in ancient times, when authors frequently copied other authors at length in works of non-fiction. This practice was useful, and is the only way many authors' works have survived even in part.

I do that mostly because I believe that the fantasy business is in terrible trouble right now, for several reasons, not the least of which being the almost Democrat vs. Republican mentality of readers on the Internet.

I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say 'Daddy, where were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet'

There's a unique bond of trust between readers and authors that I don't believe exists in any other art form; as a reader, I trust a novelist to give me his or her best effort, however flawed.

Ahead
Innovation urges us ahead,
offers opportunities which seem
more obvious in this New Year whose theme
seeks answers which empower more than bread.
What stood unchallenged once, taken as read,
insufficient now appears, the gleam
of something more important shines, whose beam,
leaves spirit searching for the soul instead.
The dream seeks motivation, trammels shed.
Timing remains essential to redeem
positive potential tapped on stream
as we approach 2000’s watershed.
Though Internet may stimulate and whet
keen appetites to challenge old mind set,
perhaps our world deserves another chance
to voice true choice and from within advance.

We are going after a targeted group of businesses that are creating opportunities for themselves using other people's property. The Internet has very little to do with this.

More produced than consumed
Authors enlarge; readers shrink.
Singers are more; listeners are less.
Preachers are many; followers scarce.
Programs are aplenty; viewers paltry.
Identity consciousness is on rise

Authors who delight in making their readers assist at scenes of sexual orgies are generally very indifferent actors in such scenes. Personally I only know of one exception to this rule, Guy de Maupassant, and I saw him die of it.

All That Which is Around
Isn't that something,
Those believe.
A life that includes diversity,
They can do without.
And still succeed.
Even though diversity,
Is all that which is around.
There are those who choose to ignore it,
With a hope a tunneled vision.
Will become a way of life,
Mother Nature decides.
Is more beneficial to provide.
And those choosing their lives,
Without diversity to surround.
Would have a better quality of life.
If 'She' removed hers from the ground.

Misplaced Ego!
I am a writer; if I sell a word or not
And if you people are my readers
Then I must be, hot to trot…?
I'll make - paper out of these cedars.
And, lay waste to a rainforest.
My carbon footprint will be?
Ginormous, just, you wait & see.
I'll be so damn monumental…
They'll commission a dozen or so,
Bronze life-size, sculptures of me!
I'll be as famous as Muhammad Ali.
…Do the quotes, shuffle like he done on T.V
You know fellow readers, I'm going…
Global faster than internet cable!
I'll be more read; than Shakespeare!
I'll marry a senorita, bedded in a stable.
I'll make all the coverage world-news
Simply by enjoying and sharing my muse.
Sorry I just can't put it any other way…
So don't steal my thunder, I'm here to stay.

Universal Freedom Is......
Freedom from hunger and freedom from pain
freedom from loss and so freedom from gain.
Freedom to give and freedom to share
freedom from want and that of despair.
Freedom to think and freedom to know
freedom to achieve and freedom to grow.
Freedom from bondage and freedom of liberation
freedom from ignorance and any unknown situation.
Freedom to come and freedom to leave
freedom to stay and freedom to conceive.
Freedom from struggle and freedom of ease
freedom to enjoy and the capacity to please.
Freedom from failure and freedom of success
freedom from denial and freedom of access.
Freedom from illusion and freedom of reality
freedom to become what we are in actuality.
Freedom to live and freedom to die
freedom to laugh and freedom to cry.
Freedom to speak and freedom to listen
freedom to act based on a wise decision.
Freedom from hate and freedom of love
freedom of below and freedom of above.
Freedom of the past and freedom of the present
freedom of the future and what it can represent.
Freedom from war and freedom of peace
freedom to begin and freedom to cease.
Freedom from sickness and freedom of health
freedom from poverty and mishandled wealth.
Freedom from wrong and freedom being right
freedom of the day and freedom of the night.
Freedom to choose and freedom to reject
freedom to imagine what there is to expect.
Freedom from lust and freedom from greed
freedom from anger and freedom from breed.
Freedom from jealousy and freedom from pride
freedom from within and freedom from outside.
Freedom of always not having anything to hide.
Freedom from space and also freedom from time
freedom from attachment and freedom from crime
Freedom to work and freedom to play
freedom to believe and freedom to pray.
Freedom to experience a rebirth someday.
Freedom from the body and freedom from the mind
freedom from the ego and freedom from being blind.
Freedom of transcendence being of the spiritual kind.
Universal freedom is eternal and infinite bliss
we should all therefore be able to realise this.
