Ash . Hello Rose,

Thank you for your interest in my work. 😊

The original manuscripts of the books uploaded here are no longer available to me. I had anticipated that people might repeatedly request free copies, which would eventually put me in a position where I would have to give away my work without compensation. For that reason, I did not keep additional copies of those manuscripts.

📚 My nonfiction books, particularly Understand the Mind of Code, Mystery Plot Audit, and Work Comes Back, contain deeply developed ideas and original thinking.

💡 I believe intelligence, creativity, and original ideas are extremely valuable. Not everyone has the ability to think through complex concepts or recognize their true value. That is precisely what gives a book its worth. If I were to distribute these ideas freely to everyone who requested them, it would defeat the purpose of the time, thought, and effort invested in writing them.

Regarding the fiction books, that is a separate matter. I no longer have their original manuscripts either. They are only available through my uploaded Kobo editions.

📖 If you are referring to Missing Pieces, there is something worth clarifying: Missing Pieces, The Recording, and Last Tide were actually three separate stories that I wrote quite some time ago as parts of one larger book.

Within hours of appearing, you're in 18 groups, with 4 works published in the past few weeks – albeit tiny ones – but no location, no surname, no photo. The question immediately arises, "Are you human?" No offense – humanity is notoriously overrated. Just curious.
Ash . Hi Dennis, no offense taken! I’ve actually been writing for quite some time, but I hadn’t published my own stories as books until recently. In the past, I wrote for magazines and worked on writing projects for others, including helping writers develop their books and stories. I also do freelance work involving writing and graphics.

The stories I’ve recently published weren’t all written in the past few weeks. Many were already written and waiting for the right opportunity to be shared. Someone encouraged me to start showcasing my own work on publishing platforms, so I decided to take that step and make my stories available to readers.

I’m still new to Goodreads as an author, so I’m building my presence here and learning how the community works. Thanks for your curiosity, and I appreciate you asking!
