I don't cut and paste anything, actually. And I have agenda, which should be clear to everyone...I'm here to make money. I don't work for free, and this is my job...I'm not here to support the "community" or some other altruistic bullshit....sorry if that makes me a bad person, but it's the truth. I wouldn't open up my laptop every morning and just sit around writing books for free, e-books, or articles...I'm paid for what I do, and it's a job for me...so that's my "agenda" ...capitalism, etc....
If someone wants to write a book (and there are currently 3 mods from other boards who are writing books that I know about, and 2 members from this board), then that's great. If they want to do it for free, then good for them....but this is my job, and I get paid for it...I can't (read: wouldn't) work for free.
But I wish nothing but the best for those people who are writing books currently (all five of them).
