I have a lot to say, but I wouldn’t want anyone to sue me!
Crazy.
Lols, Staci! 🙂
I hope the RWA tears her apart. I’m pretty sure the writing world will too.
For sure, Craig! Talk about being careful about biting off more than you can chew 🙂
This is unbelievable. Needless to say, I hope RWA has their big guns out. If not what’s to stop her or anyone else from copyrighting other words?
Exactly so, Joan. That is a huge concern for books, art, films, songs, … all of it. 🙂
She ‘copyrighted’ the word ‘cocky’ in a font the creator of which has made uncopywritable, so there’s that. He’s saying he will bring a lawsuit against her.
Her other copyright is just for the word ‘cocky’ used in the romance genre.
The RWA (I think is is) has already got their legalese up and running, so there’s also that.
This will all fall apart at the first legal challenge, and she’s not going to like it at all.
… and there’s a whole lot of other crap that’s going to bite her in the arse, to say nothing of the fact that the interwebz never forgets.
That all sounds great, Widdershins! I hope she gets all she deserves. All the best with everything 🙂
Gives hateful a whole new meaning. Thanks, Harmony.
It sure does, John. For the sake of the whole artistic world, I hope this gets reversed. Thanks for stopping by ?
