It's good that you're here now too. After all, you're in my will. I'll be alive for quite a while, hopefully, but in a hundred years or so my books will go to you guys. So, welcome! 🫶

@TheAuthorVivian @gutenberg_org I didn't know one could donate books to Project Gutenberg- how does that work?

@pyperkub @gutenberg_org

In my case, I have no children, no one to continue my legacy; so, I stipulated in my will that the distribution rights to all my books will pass to Project Gutenberg after the copyright expiry date, which is 70 years after my death the case. So, nobody can abuse my work, nobody can make money out of my name while doing nothing just to exploit other people. In my opinion, every author should consider this as an option; even with a big family.
