WOW!! I completely agree with you. I'm not an author but I know a few that are just starting out and I could not imagine downloading their book(s), or any other author for that matter, for free on some torrent website. I just couldn't consciously do it without feeling guilty about it. But this is my opinion. Good topic Cindy!!

There is NO excuse to steal. <br />Camelia Miron Skibahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00024483965891339463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795307518947791565.post-43916402234353439492012-11-04T16:22:34.228-07:002012-11-04T16:22:34.228-07:00Couldn't agree more, Jolene. :o)Couldn't agree more, Jolene. :o)Cindy C Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12484322166192803433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795307518947791565.post-50520407160081812352012-11-04T16:13:08.866-07:002012-11-04T16:13:08.866-07:00LURVE this post.
