Clarification

All of my stories are and have always been under the Creative Commons "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs" license. I'm using Version 2 for all of my stories, but since I started publishing them the terms have been the same: you may reproduce my stories, but you may not sell the commercially, you may not alter, modify, or build on the text, and you must give attribution. I permit the variant "Attribution-NonCommericial-ShareAlike" for non-story-like-work (mostly to allow people to build role playing scenarios using Pendor-- popular, or so I'm told.).

I have never authorized commercial use of the Journal Entries, Aimee', or Bloody Beth. Anyone doing so is in violation of copyright law, and the current brouhaha is over a company that was a signatory to the Berne Convention.

I guess I could sue his butt. I don't know that it would be worth it. It's not like the site indicates he has assets.

Besides, click here and see how depressed I can get. Is it any wonder I'd rather move into print, and my attitudes towards piracy are changing?

You apparently don't understand that situation very well, or you wouldn't have stepped your foot in something that smelly. Elf wrote fanfic in that universe until Niven informed him that he didn't want that to occur (because, let's be honest, Niven is homophobic), and Elf turned around and rewrote his stories in his own universe which is totally apart from Niven's.

There is only one story that is still set in Niven's universe, and it is perfectly fine in that universe under the parody laws.

Any other questions, or are you just trolling?
