Anthropic Copyright Settlement: Publishers Are Making Incorrect Claims On Authors Payouts - Writer Beware (R)

I've got a headache from all this.

Today, Panzer's first stop was at the Writers Beware (R) site. 

 

Victoria Strauss' column is beyond huge. There's mess with the payouts for books copied by Anthropic. Publishers and agents are caught in  mistaken claims in the settlement payouts. Included in the post are links to important information.

 

Panzer says, "Looks like authors need to read everything very carefully."

 

 Note: The post is beyond huge. It's gigantic. Pack a lunch to eat today. You're going to want it.

A Panzerism

 Panzer on teaching humans:

 

Everyone says that cats hold grudges.

You know ...

It's true.

We value the ability a grudge gives us to maintain our contempt for humans.

 

Chubby cat, huh?*

Here's an example: 

Mom's new neighbor Buddy actually said this out loud the first time he came over to the house last week,

"What s chubby sat."

 

I'll tell you about grudges ...

He will never find his house key again. Never. Never. Never.
