As long as you capture the emotion "in writing" Max was jealous of Sam for taking the last piece of cake. He threw his cup of milk at Sam, right into his face. The cup broke Sam's tooth and sent searing pain in this jaw. Max seeing what he did was wrong. He apologized "Oh I'm sorry ... I didn't mean to hurt you!!" [ bleep bleep drama ]

But why didn't joel read that two weeks earlier but there are issues of returning via atlantic that they don't know someone is sending that email - who said the two is going thru the suez ... GOD? or Druggies?? or Mother?? or somebody?? The police having their own issues is their problem Its still unclear who murdered mother and bridget husband and then Dirk not telling what happen but it seems to not be related to bridget husband ... but maybe it does and dirk hasn't connected all the dots .... the missing piece of the puzzle being held out before other people can figure what happen ... then for the boys or Trevor to discover another piece of the puzzle - facts he might find on atlantis. It could be some object or some software that seems normal that the Boy overlooked. Certainly its not about a bomb it could be but somethings on board that reporting information to someone. Trevor might find something else in Austrailia or on the way ... I doubt that joel or lisa can talk him out of circum ,.. its up to lisa to let joel go for the six or seven months ... they still call each other ... its a matter of not having sex for that long .... so would we like to see who Joel would have sex with ... will trevor eat his candy?? ... its going to be a rough many months ... joel has to resovle that he can retake senior year or get a ged - the same goes for trevor. One could call this personal discovery ... so it be nice if joel could go along if he can work out the issues. if not trev goes on and will make up school when he gets back Now the good question is there any thing that could sink atlantis on the way to austrailia and to home. That mystery emailer could trigger something on atlantis ... he could mess up navigation and trev could his land a day early ... or he could be needing fuel and the computer lies and he expends all the fuel and is stranded in the douldrums Can we blame the atlantis computer for being the spy ... it could be

That kinda sounds like my stories The character has already suffered on his own accord but then if you have a story there is drama and that means they have to push to survive there must be something thats worth all they gone through otherwise its shakespear all the way

Yeah that's the old guy!!

So do you think Detective Gonzales had to do anything with Bridget husbands death? Someone must have? Sure Dirk is guilty of something. But someone else must have a lot more.

Sure but First person makes it very personal Third person ... makes everything so observational ... eyes and ears JKR - if she wrote something in First or third person ... sure I'll be able to pick out dumbledore or snape or harry but in a high school story - they all seem to be the same

Thanks Graeme Someone asked if they reference a line of a lyric or a couple of words of a lyric and given "fair use" i mentioned plus making the credit. Would that be fine? I kind think it falls under risk and when in doubt clause. but its not as bad as the entire lyric in one's writing. but the complainer wouldn't care depending on the stink.

Sure it depends on the news or magazine site when your implied use as to accepted what you're allow to use it for. Most people accept it without reading it. Sometimes its there as a deterrent. But then its a matter of someone reporting and the news or magazine site verifying and objecting. Sure some are not everyone is like that and yes there are some that are. Its just that not everyone knows - oh I should check my implied use agreement. There is no guarantee whats on youtube is public domain ... they rely on people reporting ... if someone reports - even if the item is public domain ... there is a chance they will take their own safety before re-allowing the video to show. Unless somewhere on the description says its permission is given or public domain - but then that has to be verified. No its not the point of you uploading your own account ... it the fact the website is taking risks ... but really was lucky in your case but not other peoples. Still each creator on a video could be a violator and that the website could get a share of the blame depending upon who makes the stink. Also the responder to your thread may now know if what his youtube url has permission as well. Yup - even copyright office is vague in their FAQ and then say the when in doubt get permission and they citing does not guarantee permission. --- so question is it ok to have url links in ones writing ? as oppose to forum or chat.

Whats really hard is when someone changes POV - you have to dig around - who is I (james, Mary, Paul) This why I usually get pissed at the story ... This is why I am so mechanical actually specifying POV ie John POV I guess as the scene progress - we have to pick up who's the character thats running the scene but if you see I and no other character says Hey Paul .... then I wouldn't know I = Paul its also Hard when "Hey Paul" is like 1/2 way down the scene I am quite literal and specify <John POV> or <Narrator POV> prior to the scene I am writing

Found various quotes on different sites From 2010 All lyrics used within fan fiction MUST be attributed to the rightful source. It's all right if you're just referencing a song name, but if they lyrics feature in any part of your fic whatsoever, in any format, a disclaimer which includes the writers, performers and recording label which released the song must be provided at either the beginning or the end of a fan fiction. Additionally, fan fiction will not be allowed where original content comprises less than 70% of a submission; that is, if you intend to use song lyrics within your work, you must use sufficient fan fiction within your story to avoid copyright breach. From 2009 Quoting lyrics without specifying the source and adding it to your disclaimer. If you do this, your whole story might simply be deleted. We're not looking to get sued just because you can't give proper credit where necessary. From 2008 Actions not allowed: Copying from a previously published work (including musical lyrics) not in the public domain.From 2004 It's been a busy month. The most noticeable change you will see is that AI will not longer accept or post songfics. We have decided to remove all stories with lyrics written in them. Authors have been given until August 14, 2005 to remove any and all lyrics from their works or the stories will be removed. So far the response has been positive and I thank their authors for their understanding and cooperation.

but then there are exceptions - what if god plan was for someone to suicide then how could it been a gift. then there goes the argument of free will then how does man learn its a gift if not have an example of life thrown away ( how do you know sweet when you haven't tasted bitter ) Man has short memory of its lessons ---- someone I know, his father commited suicide - due to battling depression for 50 years sure I know its sad for his family - and - they're dealing with it in different ways sure I remind him - to encourage his siblings to not give up on their education or advancement or dream - its a gift from Parents that should not be thrown away - its up to them to figure out the path each sibling will be affect in different ways and so will the wife

I already expected our young hero to do all the dirty work and the suffering (his own so far unless those bad guys come chasing him - him running for his life - would dear old dad come to his rescue) It would be something if it was a group effort to solve the case and figure it out but it seems the story is one's own journey - our young hero

Thanks for your reply - I look forward to other people's opinions as well. Sure the writing point is one where the author could be liable. Depending who objects or reports. Actually a chat - what you ever someone says - does not remain for someone to see after its been typed ... anyone coming in later like 10min later may not see the links or earlier message after 10mins. That simple forum post puts that website at risk as the forum is open to the public to view at any time thus is considered illegal publishing that the user has done so. Matter of time for someone to report the website. Now for the forum\threads ... someone 30 days to five years from now will find the links or the cut and pasted lyrics or news article. Its would be concidered that siteB violated siteA copyrighted material and\or siteB gave siteA high volume of internet traffic that made them angry (increase data traffic costs) or whatever else. In fact google has a copy of the forum\thread. Furthering the abuse. Or can be asked to give historical records of how long the abuse has been happening. This thing here is where siteB is liable to whatever siteA or author or songwriter can object to. Basically siteA will say for example "you got our news article on your site ... we want it off etc etc" Because its not a communication that has a finite timelimit of accessibility it rather longterm and thats the samething as something that is published. users of siteB has published on the internet siteA material. The leeway that maybe given is that they don't wish to make fans angry but other kinds of site may take objection. Its just a matter of again like you say someone reporting it - or - someone policing or sniffing if a site is violating. Hey there was some company that complained to google for having their information available for googling again the storage of copyrighted material somewhere else. But for now companies are finding it costly to go and protect their copyrighted material ... but sooner or later something is done? Hey siteA could just block siteB from ever referencing them. Online picture sites do this as they realize the pictures are not helping with creating new revenue but adding to operating expense. Really the big abuser is really youtube, rapidshare, etc and the copycats could be taken down for example. Allowing users to publish on their website ... but somewhere someone was lax or allow not right thing to do - to be generally accept thing to do.

Your link works CJames points to Chapter 26 must be the ozo aww - I wanted to see Joel do a strip tease and a lap dance with Trevor naked joel would scream for s.h. hey - all the details of Trevor and the guy - too lacking there of - some one is too bashful i guess - Eric got to make an appearance to get Joel and Trevor on his website and a deal on the dutch or swiss website I'm surprise they are goiing to greece if its trouble and if they still have to be worried about being follow, bomb, or hijack What if there is something on atlantis those unknown guys want? Time to sail somewhere else stay tuned for more domestic dirk and officer leak chatter

Congrats!! I still hit that deja vous too. happy hunting :ranger: cupid's following

From a Legal point of view - sure it can be done that way but still that would force someone to google or youtube it and listen to the music and then try to get the idea of the story especially if they don't know the song. Sure I have ran into this. Do I appreciate the story not very much some times because its the reader had to go look it all up and that moment you created in writing just got diminished for that reader. And then the person had to reread your moment and try to connect with the moment written. If a step forward to include the links ex: John's voice was sweet and smooth and as he sang, his words trickled into my ears like warm water. The lyrics were sorrowful and yet I felt alive. He was singing to me, for me. Even though I hated Journey's "Don't Stop Believing," the way John sang the song warmed my soul. He was speaking to me through the lyrics of the songs. Conveying to me the words he could never say himself. He believed in me. (Journey - Don't Stop Believing (Live) - ) (Journey - Don't Stop Believing Lyrics - http://www.lyricsfreak.com/j/journey/dont+stop+believin_20075670.html ) In taking your example a step further but having the links ... would this be acceptable? That's given to avoid 100% of referring to lyrics. But still your force to just avoid show more of the feeling that the character of what lyrics did mean something because its a Legal issue. What if many readers did go listen the song that's new to then ... agree about is being sweet and smooth but not agree about the trickled warm water ... its the nature of the Legal Point that we're force to report impressions and feelings like a summary of it - unable to relay the details that happening between John and the guy. You might not have a musical story but you might have two characters that sang the song with each other ... there may be a message being sent from one char to the other and it may very well be a specific portion of the lyric ... it gives meaning to the reader to be able to know between to characters exactly what the connection is and what was conveyed. The reader would get a deeper appreciation for the song and the two characters. But from the legal point of view ... your force to just summarize the feelings or seek ways to describe the link and the vague way of referring to the song. --- To put it another way .... Your entry for "Broken Heart... Loss Love" you would only have what you said but you would not be allow to provide the youtube link nor the lyric link Now how would people feel about your entry ... the sharing is very much diminished ... because they will have to look it up themselves ... by finding it by themselves For the another person to share a similar song again he can't put the link there but do the same as the first entry. The sharing or the connection maybe stalled or diminished. For someone else they could not reference "hey when the guy sang that verse "loss love" half way through the song I got goose pimples ... he sent a message I could hear from his voice that it was meant for me." becomes "hey when the guy sang half way through the song I got goose pimples ... he sent a message I could hear from his voice that it was meant for me." This would be the lack of specific connections. This is one example but there can be multiple places in the song where it make it special between two characters. That's the reality of what it means to a couple or ex-couple or divorcee's Boiling it down to a summary would just make the reader feel the lack of appreciation for the song or why bother mentioning it - you know I won't bother to google it. Too bad you can put the lyrics or even quote it. In theory - from 2004 - there was a website that actually deleted message entries that reference other sites as it was to conform and to avoid legal issues of connecting the site with other sites because that's their copyrighted materials. But as Graeme said people do it if they can do it and it not necessarily right. So really a lot of forums or threads and stories at the time could not point to copyrighted materials. Now six years later the scare is not relax. But look at GA for example - people are linking to copyrighted materials and even positing the lyrics or the article text That be many examples here of violation. Sure GA for a story would be force to take down the story and may tell the user if you want the story on the website then you have to remove the lyrics. Not sure really what will happen to the user. Maybe GA be force to reveal the author to the request for removing the story. I am not sure about that on how far an upset artist or songwriter would be. But any way thanks for your reply ... I have already sort of considered your example ... some time ago ... I just what to see how close the fine line is. But if your reply still stands that links are not allowed also then the same goes with all the threads that have links and cut and pasted lyrics or text. I did run into one story that used lyrics - forgot if any other stories did use but I forgot which stories names did. Sure I do get at some point what Graeme said we can't police ourselves but just remove the offending story but I am not sure do they and other sites have to report the user and block the user from the site. Some other sites do something that. I think. Otherwise sure there are many stories still accessible out there that are in violation should artist or songwriter wishes to pursue at their option. Even if the user is no longer there on the site. If they really want witch hunt then they could go down that far. But if you're saying this much the reality of it ... The reality becomes -> its just confusing to all that have to read read many threads on the topic and be confuse to the point of why bother at all or I'll take the risk as long as they don't ban me or report me.

Too much specialization here - not enough on Trevor's sex life and Joel's BI life Eventually Trevor's going to sail into what he seeking the answer for maybe without Dirk really telling him but one day when Trevor does see his Dad he would at least hear his dad out about whatever its after dec 25th Maybe he might bump into the answer for Bridget too The mess will show itself in time and straighten itself out

I have go through the link but still there's has been no answer by GA to giving some Guidlines in this matter What I said was using the round about way its still part of the story sort of cited footnote. Its just makes the user go for the song or movie clip or lyrics - while the character is reflecting or talking about so maybe quoting the song title would not be as bad as lyrics in the story. ie: John was singing me Wild Things by XYZ ... its was my first love song from him. ( Youtube link) ( Lyric Link) ie: I as listinning to the radio playing Do you Know by diana ross. I got upset by the song as I Don't Know where I am going. ( Youtube link) ( Lyric Link) Yes I have thought about CJames idea - but then the reader will have to make up what the music is like in their heads Believe me its two different things Its like what if you did like the lyrics but if you really listen to the song - you can even make out the lyrics being sung Yes I think for Later - sure I have my songs in my story - but as you said consider writing my own type of lyrics for a song I'll have to come back to that as each song is involved to think about There are those that can't write lyrics - so - thats is still giving a thorn to writers LoveLessSoubi - Bonded By Blood She has the lyrics and link to you tube. But I would take the links to both, if that be more safe to do than to have lyrics that causes trouble.

Reminds me of the website www.houseboi.com and that story on nifty or GA - CraigsList ---- You still have to wonder the person that wrote it ... at least you get to meet the guy that's if you pass the questionnaire. One wonders who's out to get who? That be different CraigList type stories
-
I would understand this if I were making a book or movie for profit or money is involved But are you saying its still a thin line even for like a GA or nifty story? (no profit and no money involved) What if one just points links to youtube for song and a link to the lyrics ... then would that be better? The same question to even a movie?

I forgot about the issues tossed around. The funny thing is I not seen offical GA position on the matter and guidelines In 2004 to 2006 - there was a site that didn't want youtube links or lyrics posted in threads But look at GA there is that going on and no one in the music world sent an objection There are music lyrics sites all over the internet - so how come they aren't objected to? How that different in a story? one author puts, of course that authors story is not on nifty or GA the author used youtube and lyrics - used about four songs ( I didn't write the lyrics - Adds Citation to the Group rights ) ie: (I didn't write the lyrics - Yes - Artist Rights Reserved)
