Hi! Have you had something high-protein today, drank a glass of water or gone outside? Many things are bad, but you still matter, and are someone worth taking care of. I know how hard you are trying. One thing at a time.

Me: "Why don't I bake anymore? I used to bake all the time! I love baking!"

Me, at 4pm: "Time to start baking!"

Me, ~7pm: *hangry exhaustion tantrum while the dough's chilling* "I HATE BAKING!"

Me, ~830pm, eating fresh tasty cardamom chocolate cookies: "They're SO GOOD, but I'm SO TIRED 😭 "

Tips to confirm registration:

- Ask your agent & publisher for the copyright cert

- Use Advanced Search

- Test shorter title versions, drop subtitle

- Try different author name spellings (full legal, accents, hyphens)

- Search your ISBN

- Check under your publisher’s name

Authors: If you found out that your publisher(s) failed to register with the U.S. Copyright Office, we can help. We provide ongoing legal assistance to our members and advocate for their work, particularly in the face of ongoing AI-related theft.
I am lightly horrified by how many people have now looked up their books and found out their publishers (who often were required contractually!!!!) just... didn't register the copyrights on books. Not all of them! Just sporadically!

This is not just one publisher, I've seen all the big ones now.
Today is the day authors are learning how many of their publishers straight up blew off registering copyright and I feel like that deserves a class action suit of its own if it costs everyone their settlement money from the Anthropic suit... 😒🤬
