If I am not already on it, please add me to the ping list.

Your story is off to a good start. As I said on FB, you should copyright it.

Back to reading it... ;-)

Happily, the act of writing confers an implied copyright.

as I understand the copyright laws now for writing, once apiece is written, put to ‘paper’ and writer identified - the copyright is automatic. (I've had this little conversation in the past with one of my editors, (a self-avowed a Marxist,) re the difference between news stories written as a reporter and free lance columns.)

And, today, with the Internet at our fingertips, anyone who plagiarizes can be ‘caught’ easily with a google search of phrases, etc.

Fortunately, the mere act of writing it gives Laz de facto copyright.
