Wright Tue, 22 Sep 2009 09:47:11 +0000 http://www.techcrunch.com/?p=50202#comment-2997311 I write gay romance, and have my books posted on Scribd, both for $$ and for free. My goal as a writer of gay literature is to hopefully help others who may be experiencing sadness, loneliness, or perhaps even despair in their lives for being gay. I don't write for the sole goal of making money. I don't think that has ever made anyone truly happy. Helping others gives meaning to one's life, not money. ~B.K.
