If you make money from your writing, take a look at the petition that Ursula Le Guin will be sending to Judge Chin re: the Google Book Settlement. I’m not positive if there will be a revision of the section where it complains about the “opt in to object” thing — which is a feature of class-action law, not really alterable in this case — but anyway, this is at least one channel by which to say “the Authors Guild representatives do not speak for me.”
