Hi Hi,
So I've been doing my homework on a blog platform to use. I've been using tumblr informally, but I don't like it.
A colleague of mine enjoys using WordPress, so I thought, why not?
Well, I saw this thing called "Creative Commons," and something on their website about having the right to distribute my writerly crap without royalty whenever the hell they want.
On that second item, I don't really care. They can stick my name and a snippet of something I write on a pop up ad. Big deal. Probably won't happen anyway. Creative Commons scares me a bit more, because I don't know what the hell that and "some rights reserved" even means.
I tried wikipediaing it; that only confused me more.
My big fear is that if I compile my humor essays and short stories and the like into a novel, try to sell it, and someone with a suit and tie goes "hmmmm you posted that on WordPress in 2014. This can't be published. You're S.O.L., try again, dumbwad."
So yeah, thanks!
Happy writing
