You should add the feature that author Janet Evanovich uses to draw traffic to her site; she lets people yap on about, and post pictures of, their pets!

J/K Looks nice. Never a doubt that you’ll go far. :)

Can anyone give me advice on what to do when someone in a foreign country that honors USA copyrights violates one - even to the extent of translating one of his books into a foreign language and adding his own notes to the text?

Who do I report violations to?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you Mr. Laz. I am a (now) published author that has written non fiction and fiction. I have many more on my mental whiteboard. I resisted a site, but to avail myself of mailerlite and bookfunnel, it is almost a mandatory necessity.

My daughter is a book editor. She told me that authors need to have a strong social media presence before publishers will even consider them.

BTW authors: She just became unemployed due to a reorganization. If you know of publishers looking for editors or need a freelancer send me a message.

I wrote articles for State and Local Bar Associations for several years on management topics. Particularly enjoyed the feedback I received from those.

Have moved on since retirement but recently published an autobiography for family members and friends. I autographed each with the following statement “If you have trouble sleeping, this is a guaranteed cure”

I’ve often considered writing a book to publish — I do enjoy writing - but a good topic has eluded me thus far
