I don't take notes.

The definition of rape can vary among the states to some extent. However, generally speaking, whether or not someone is too intoxicated to know what they are doing, and therefore lack the ability to give consent, is a matter of fact determined on a case-by-case basis by the trier of fact (e.g...

Thanks for the clarification. Appreciated!

With the exception of the textbooks and other lengthy non-fiction books I've published, I never do any plotting ahead of time, I think about my subject, research it when required and then I compose at the keyboard. I have always done that--even in the days when I used a typewriter and making...

Thanks for the reply. I had looked where you suggest but it is still not clear to me whether a reader can "drop" a book without reading it, only after beginning to read it, or only if they had it on a "to read" list. I did not want to inadvertently give someone a "dropped" rating by...

I apologize in advance if this information is available somewhere else, but I did try searching for it without success. How is a reader "drop" of a story calculated? Is it someone who began reading the story but does not return to it within a specific period of time? Or is it an option a reader...

The ability to download ePub or PDF files might be useful if available only to authors for their own work for anyone who writes content using the site's built-in editor (I do not). But I would not like such a feature to be available to readers as it would make it easier to pirate complete works...

Best of luck...

I provide links to my podcasts for chapter readings from my novel and short stories where appropriate. Youtube links are also an option.

I agree!

Don't get discouraged. It can take time for readers to find you, especially if your writing does not hit the "sweet spot" of the site in terms of readers' preferences (Mine most assuredly does not.). I am new here but not new to writing across very different fields. Generally, though, posting...

Like nails on chalkboards I will share my rhyme, Dissonant, dreadful, decidedly bad, But I expect you'll tell me it's sublime, For you are kind and would not make me sad. And so your kindness I'll try to repay, With lines less dreadful I wrote yesterday. *. *. * Why I Write I do not write...
