lmao what book is this?

Of course not. That title belongs to Fruit Ninja.

That definitely wasn’t the case for this small-town library.

About ten years back, I had moved away from home and was living in a small town with no Internet in my apartment. The only internet connection I had was the local library.

I remember being so surprised at the amount of viruses on those dumb computers. I wondered what the heck people were doing to them to get them in that state, and then one time I saw some dude looking up porn and just downloading whatever programs the pages he came to told him to.

Anyway, I’m glad I have Internet in my apartment now.

Most new books I find are books I check out from my local library. While the library did pay for a copy, so it’s not quite the same, as a reader I didn’t pay anything for it. The barrier to trying the new book is very small, and if I don’t like it I haven’t lost anything.

Readers finding your book online for free are having the same experience. Maybe not everyone who reads it will want to buy copies, but some will. Just like how some who find your book in a library would want to buy their own copy.

It’s like saying someone stole your bike and you don’t want to be immoral by stealing it back.

What the hell are you talking about
