RE: My Personal TRIBUTE to Laura Lemons - a Steemian, friend, artist, & Bright Mind

in #steemit7 years ago

@cryplectibles laura did that because there was at one point some stink within an online group regarding her use of a pen name. Versus her real last name. It caused her a great deal of anxiety because she was unsure of the legality of using a pen name so she upmarked it/ removed it. Very unenlightened group that caused her a lot of headaches this being one. Laura wanted her books to help people I'm sure she'd want them to be readily acessible I just unsure how we could do that. @kaylinart may know more as she is a coloring book artist and friend of Laura's

Wow, that is really horrible, just sad to hear and makes me feel a little anger, not at any person but just a general at the world anger that people are so ignorant on how their actions may effect others who may not have as strong a tolerance for things as them (I hope it's ignorance at least for those people so hopefully they can at least learn and grow one day). I follow @kaylinart and am going to just at least show her these comments and maybe she would know what, if anything, could be done to share these pages with people. Thank you for the suggestion and am sorry to know such a beautiful person was giving shit at all online for what can only be just opinions on how their own feelings on what or how books should be.

If anyone has a copy of each book and if it comes to people just wanting her works to be free and shared and out there, I would completely get nice scans and make pdf files and put in on http://archive.org for her works to live forever.

I have both books. One page out of sad girl that I colored and mailed to Laura as "fan art." But i have a pic of it. I'm unsure how to proceed with sharing the art "legally"..... but let us keep the archival idea in mind. It has promise. Keep in touch
