This will help them investigate for you.<br /><br />Sylvie, I'm unclear regarding your question. Are you a Smashwords author or do you upload direct to Scribd? I don't see an account at Smashwords for you. If you're a Smashwords author, you'll earn money from people reading your work. If you upload direct to Scribd, it sounds like you have a question you'll need to direct to scribd at www.scribd.com.

My book was "opted in" without any action on my part.<br /><br />I was alerted to this when Scribd sent me a notice that they were removing a short story that I had posted on Scribd prior to including it in the anthology I published here. While I applaud their diligence in noticing, they missed another story similarly situated, and they removed the EARLIER content - not the anthology that might net them some revenues. I find this disingenuous, at best. <br /><br />I have unpublished the anthology from Smashwords, and I have deleted ALL content from Scribd. If you are still able to read anything of mine, on either site, we have a problem.Holly Jahangirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034708581256314628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436915084701775452.post-29900657318554831802014-04-08T17:39:39.992-07:002014-04-08T17:39:39.992-07:00@Brian - if your Smashwords-distributed books are ...@Brian - if your Smashwords-distributed books are not appearing correctly at Scribd, please contact the Smashwords support team by clicking the "support" link from any Smashwords page.<br /><br />@stephen - Scribd is working hard to eliminate unauthorized file uploads (see my December 21 update above). This relationship with Smashwords is evidence of that commitment. All Smashwords titles are being "fingerprinted" to be used as the authorized reference editions. It's a tough job they're undertaking, because although thousands of unauthorized versions have been automatically removed as a result of this relationship (good!), there have also been some accidental removals (false positives, not good) of authorized versions. I think you'll see them get better over time as they tweak and iterate.Dovetail Public Relationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05039664167177159146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436915084701775452.post-32244489447522524162014-04-08T17:16:38.284-07:002014-04-08T17:16:38.284-07:00All my books are showing up as "purchase only...All my books are showing up as "purchase only" which means they are not part of the subscription plan.
