An Appeal To The Person Pirating My Work (Patreon)

Recently the text of locked chapters have appeared on a site. As this is the only place where they have been posted, it's one of my subscribers. 

This puts me in devastating jeopardy for me because instead of an epub floating around The Pirate Bay or whatever, it's searchable raw text that Amazon crawlers WILL find.

I've filed a DMCA notice to the website and the host but as they're a pirate site I might have to go with Adult Legal Action.

Before I do that, I wanted to appeal to the person doing it. Please stop. Please, please, please take down what you have posted up. 

You aren't pirating from The Man, you're doing it from me. An author who has a family to feed. 

If the raw text isn't taken down than I might not be able to publish on Amazon without risking my entire account there. As a patreon subscriber you are already getting the copy of the story PLUS a edited version when the ebook is ready.

I want to share this story, but I can't if by doing so my future as an author has been stolen from me.

Just take it down.
