What is up with your very prominent "I am not supposed to quote the complete, so use the link" lately? Did somebody slap you on the wrist for quoting too much before? I mean, it is a valid concern quoting too much of copyrighted material. They (MR) are not doing it to be only mean to you, but they do it other places too. Entirely possible that there have been complaints from copyright holders against MR. It is pretty darn silly, but then most copyright law is - and that is my personal opinion only.

We still love your posts if they got links instead of full quotes.

Edit: As to the article itself. This may be true if only considering traditional publishing. Self publishing through free self publishing platforms (e.g KDP, Nook) is not a thing of the future. I wonder if this escapes Jim's sister or if she specifically complains about getting published traditionally. Or rather not published. I think it is interesting that she uses her close relationship to best selling Jim as leverage. And if not as leverage, why mention it at all?
