PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

On the basis that during 2024 I have experienced two separate counts of people copy-pasting my original writing into chatGPT and claiming it as their own work, without consent and in defiance of the convention of international copyright legislation, I will no longer release any new content for public observation. As of this time my original output is a commercial enterprise. The associated moniker SnakeAppleTree is a trademark commercial vehicle.

“Imagination does not breed insanity. Exactly what does breed insanity is reason. Poets do not go mad; but chess-players do. Mathematicians go mad, and cashiers; but creative artists very seldom. I am not, as will be seen, in any sense attacking logic: I only say that this danger does lie in logic, not in imagination.”

G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

"There’s an unwritten compact between you and the reader. If someone enters a bookstore and sets down hard earned money(energy) for your book, you owe that person some entertainment and as much more as you can give."

Frank Herbert
