"Cocktales"
by The Cocky Collective
Author's Book Description :

'Cocktales' is a limited-release anthology (available *only* from May 26 – August 26, 2018) of original, never before published material, some of which is raw and unedited. Each story was specifically written for this anthology.

The goal of the Cocktales Anthology is to raise funds to fight against obstruction of creative expression. Specifically, what we believe are obstruction attempts through the trademarking of common (single) words for titicular use in books / or as a book series (eBooks, print, and audio).

*ALL* net profits will be donated to:
1) Authors already impacted by creative-obstruction (10%), and
2) Romance Writers of America (RWA) (90%) as a general donation intended for their Advocacy Fund.

Disclaimer: This anthology is not being conducted on behalf of RWA, nor does RWA endorse this anthology or effort. They have, however, graciously agreed to accept the funds.

Here's the legal threat I received from her lawyer. Personal details about lawyers omitted because I'm that much of a stand-up guy (everybody deserves a lawyer and no qualms with someone doing the job).

Prepping up the docs I received soon. pic.twitter.com/bFOQMUSvPG

Nice article from @MaryDube_, a fellow Texan-in-exile in CA and journalist for USAToday, about the "(CENSORED)tales" anthology. I hope she keeps following the story of this anthology - she may have to write a new one very soon!https://t.co/JWCTJlELp9
