I've been through a number of writing platform changes in the last eight years. I want to be positive about this one, and I appreciate HP's candor and explanations on what is expected for authors -- I hope it turns out to be true. We all work hard, here. It's business, and companies have a history of saying nothing will change but for the better, only to find out that, indeed changes do occur (and often for the worse). So, congrats HP -- thank you for looking out for us. Time will tell if Maven has the same respect for its contributors as Paul and Robin do. I am staying positive on this one.

Anyone notice the change in forum post format?It's a little hard to read with the mix of serif fonts in the midsts of a sans serif site. What's going on with the forums? Is this a work in progress? Or am I just going crazy...? And, when I post a new topic, it sends me back to the forums main...

I'm not here to Cry! I'm not here to have someone else "fix" my situation. But I have been doing this for over 10 years now on HP and presently I am sitting here, wondering about how much power Google has over my income.You see, I am something of an EXPERT on one particular subject and...
