So let’s answer it once and for all with a resounding YES. Under the current admins, TUEBL has always had a DMCA takedown process, which means it falls solidly… Read more »
Hey TUEBLovers, Welcome to Cheapass Fiction!
Hi there! I’m Aelius. I write. I’m also an avid TUEBL fan. You know that Facebook page everyone checks for the latest library news/panic/oh-my-god-where-is-TUEBL moments? I made that.

The Hunger Games: Week 1 Check In
24 hours. That’s how much time it took me to finish Hunger Games. I was embarrassed about this. After all Hunger Games gets a lot of shit from the writing community. (Some examples) I’ve seen a few writers lament that their writing gets rejected while “badly written” books like The Hunger Games and Twilight get massively popular. But it was this ”bad writing,”… Read more »

Sorry, sorry, I know I’m a week and a half late! Better late than never, right? I am still working on Cory Doctorow’s Makers–the TUEBL book of the month for March (whoops.)
