Tweet of the Day, This… Is Not How Copyright Works. At ALL. edition.

I’m a published author, and I don’t even want it to work this way. I’m not licensing you hardcopies of my books. I’m selling you hardcopies of my books. Once you have it, it’s yours to resell, loan out, or turn into a damn paper-mache rabbit if you like. See, I already got paid.

Can’t get over this “copyright” notice that was included in a real book. Some poor Reddit user had to ask if it was a real thing. pic.twitter.com/9tfnZY7F4I
