Copyright issues
As
some of you may have noticed, many people who have typed out or
scanned either the entire books, portions of the books or first
chapter of Breaking Dawn have received (or should be receiving) a
message from their hosting companies that notices were sent from my
publisher to take the content down. I know people are eager to share
their excitement about my books, which I love, but you may not be
aware that making portions of the book available for download is
violating my copyright (unless you have written permission from me or
my publisher). Quoting a sentence or two is fine, but anything beyond
that is in violation of copyright. Basically, copyright gives an
author control over where, when and how her work is made available to
the public. This exists to protect the author and her work – a lot
of effort has been put into creating these books for you to enjoy —
so I hope people cooperate in respecting the copyright for all my
novels.
Thanks!

Da ich keine Lust auf Ärger habe, habe ich das Kapitel rausgenommen. Eventuell frage ich nach der Erlaubnis, es auf Deutsch zu posten, aber ich glaube kaum, dass jede E-Mail geantwortet wird xD
Mal sehen, ob ich mir die Mühe machen werd.
Trotzdem vielen Dank für die Kommis und an TE-Angela, die mir wegen dem Copyright noch mal in den Arsch getreten hat.
LG, Punkt
