If you believe the specific requirement for additional registration with the US Copyright Office is excluding work you know was stolen for the LibGen database, let the SoA know.
A searchable works list has been released to identify the authors’ works that were stolen by US Corporation Anthropic, to train its AI models. It includes UK authors whose works were copied without their permission or payment.

Many devices, other than the obvious phones, can also transmit trackable signals. These can include smart ear buds, headphones, smart glasses, key fobs, location tags, watches, and health wearables.
No need to carry everything with you everywhere.

Peter Morwood, an incredible author, passed suddenly two weeks ago. Here's a chance to explore some of his writings and help out his family.
I was informed that @peter.petermorwood.com had a book on sale. I was surprised. The Book of Years Omnibus, for $2. In honor of him, and @diane.dianeduane.com, 10 uncached US Kindle copies. If you read it and like it, please say good things about it publicly.

Here's Terry Pratchett mastering the urban fantasy/hidden London genre in less than 500 words when he was just 17, in February 1966. "The idea of
people rushing round deep under the earth is dark and mysterious, and the monks want to make sure people remember that".

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much?
They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs.
Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher.
Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.”
It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.
