if all of these stories are free for the taking to be posted on websites, then is it inappropriate to ask for an author's paypal account so i can send him/her a dollar or two for her/his creative endeavor?

thank you

You misunderstand. They are not free to take & post elsewhere. They are free to read HERE, on Literotica.

If you take them without the author's permission, you are breaking the law.

Seconded. They are free to read, not to be reposted.

If you wish to repost them elsewhere, then I recommend contacting the author, getting their permission and making arrangements with them personally, through the feedback system or through these boards.

Sorry if our previous answers gave you the wrong idea.

Hmmm... the way I read this is that newxxx is also offering to pay the Lit author as a thank you, even though newxx knows Lit is a free site.

I think it was the phrase "free for the taking to be posted on websites" that was the trigger.

Newxxx - thank you for your interest in Lit stories, honestly. Many of us have had works stolen and posted elsewhere without our permission and without being paid for our work. Therefore, we're a bit touchy about matters.

It is delightful to meet someone who wishes to post stories from the authors here but who wishes to go about it in the proper way.

It seems you have your eye on a few stories - PM those authors and find out what they wish in return.

Good luck!
