Thumbnail image for How Piracy has affected an author and why some will silently hope SOPA becomes a reality

Ok, I had to get my grown up on and try to make this look like I actually do write for a living. This is not about why SOPA/PIPA is right or wrong, but why there is a LARGE non-major named  push behind it. For those of you who might not understand why there is [...]

Do you think I enjoy you popping [...]
