Special Note

Each contributor inherently owns all rights
to his or her submitted postings,
which can not be used by anyone in any format
without that person's permission.

Upon submitting a posting, each contributor is encouraged
to give notice of his or her copyright by adding this line
to the bottom of the article:
Copyright © (year) (name). All rights reserved.

Even if a posting does not include a copyright notice,
it must be assumed the contributor named owns the copyright.

The content of this site is an electronic resource only.
I will not unilaterally publish this material as a whole
in print form (such as a book for sale) for my own gain.

Collectively, our writings are more valuable
to the disability community (and society at large)
as an online resource than in printed form, such as a book.

Yet, individually, our stories are valuable
to each one of us because they can open doors
to new opportunities (jobs, agents, publishers,
assignments).

Upon submitting their postings, the contributors involved
are assigning their inherent rights
of electronic display and distribution for their stories
to tell-us-your-story.com on a nonexclusive basis.

Upon submission of their postings,
contributors are also giving me permission
to use short excerpts of their postings to illustrate tell-us-your-story.com's purpose
in online promotional efforts.

My Privacy Policy:

For each visitor to my Web page, my Web server automatically recognizes only the visitor's domain name but not the e-mail address.

I collect aggregate information about which pages visitors access, review it to improve my site and then discard it.

I do not share, rent or sell my subscriber lists to any other person or organization for any reason.
