These are the 4 books META pirated from me to train their AI.

That's over half a million words and thousands of hours of my work.

You just found out your book is on a list of 7.5 million pirated books (Authors Guild)

Arrgghh! #bookpirates We see you #Meta! Yeah, they got me, too!💙📚🆘😡 #authors #booksky #Treksky #SFFBooksky #SpecList #WritingCommunity #WritingandBooks #Romancelandia

It’s so disheartening to discover your books are being pirated. It’s worse when major companies like Meta use those pirated books for their own gains. What’s the point of pursuing a dream that’s being stolen from you? #sad #indieauthor #authorproblems #booksky #authorlife #piratedbooks #bookpirates
