Hi all,
Just had an email, sent via Lit Feedback system, and I wanted to bring it up with other authors. Also seems dodgy to me so I wanted others to know just in case it is.
I was emailed and asked "if you would be interested in selling the following short stories to me?". A list of twelve of my stories then followed with the following: "For all twelve stories (you would have to take them down from literotica, and anywhere else they are online, and I would have full rights to them) I would be willing to pay $800 as a one time payment."
I was given an email address to reply to.
Before replying I updated my profile essentially saying what I replied to this email address. That reply is as follows:
"No. Under no circumstances and no amount of money would I sell my stories or the rights to them."
Now this may have been a genuine, if misguided, enquiry, but something just feels off with it. So I wanted to share and see if anyone else had had this and see what others thought. Also to document the message and my response publicly.
Let me know. Thanks.
