#WritersCoffeeClub 10/16: How do you feel about people reading your works without buying a personal copy?
A person who wants to read my book without buying it?
Go ahead! There's a copy in the local library.
You can't get to the library? You live very far away?
Hit me up! I'll send you an e-book or even a printed copy if you pay the shipping.
You borrowed or stole a copy from your friend?
I'm flattered you are so eager to read my story! I hope it brings you joy and insight!
You're actually an AI agent looking to crawl all over my work like some digital plague of cockroaches?
I am on my way to hell right now to make sure your pit is deeper and hotter than anything the devil could devise and may you rot there ever so slowly.
