Well said, Sam! Violence is not the answer here. Even though many of us have lost everything, let us not lose what no one can ever take away from us but ourselves - our personal character.

I believe there is a way out of this even though we can't see it clearly yet. To all affected, let's find (blaze?) this new path - together.

Excellent words of wisdom, Sam! People are understandably upset and frustrated. However, victimizing the family and neighbors of Scribe's former CEO is unconscionable and needs to stop. Two wrongs don't make a right! Keep up the great work, Sam!

yeah well said! my spreadsheet of ExScribers is now 110+ I probably don't email everyone as often as I should....but I have a life to live! Yes, a part of me will always feel victimized by this until Justice is found. I use that part of my soul to empathize with other victims. When the kids are in bed and my work is done, only then do I calmly write/speak to those authors and organize them for a civil and just action.

Just saw on Reddit that Scribe Media LLC just filed for bankruptcy on the 16th of October 2023.

There is also another lawsuit against them: Kurtz v. Scribe Media, LLC.
