Oh, and the original author who started this mess by trademarking “cocky,” Faleena Hopkins, is still at it. She’s filing a lawsuit against people now for challenging her trademark. (Um, if she was so sure about her trademark, why not let it wind its way through the usual trademark channels instead of filing a lawsuit that smacks of desperation and idiocy?)
Here’s another #cockygate book rec. This one is an anthology, and I’ll let the description tell the story. (Go view the book on Amazon for the list of participating authors–it’s a BUNCH.)
Cocktales – The Cocky Collective
About the Cocktales Anthology:
‘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.
