Very Interesting Developments

I don't often get presented with issues of copyright violation and intellectual property theft, but I did see this one today. It seems someone has set up a blog where they are offering copyrighted ebooks for free, two of which I authored. I also know the authors of several of other offered ebooks.

Folks, one of the big myths about authoring books is that somehow the author gets rich. I'm here to tell you, in this niche market, that just is NOT true at all. If you're that hard up that you need to steal someone else's intellectual property...well, what can I say?

Suffice it to say, this just isn't cool.
