*DISCLAIMER*
A LA THE CURIOUS COLUMNIST

Howdy! If you’re perusing this page, you’re likely seeking legal language regarding this site, CuriousColumnist.com. Although I myself am very fond of language, legal language is perhaps my least favorite - except for maybe medical language. (No offense to the medical community.)

That being said, legalese may not be colorful, but it is important. So, let’s dig in. I promise I’ll try to make it as painless as possible. (Head’s up - I’ll be batting back and forth between first person and third person. Why? Because it feels right.) Here goes:

PLEASE DON’T BORROW MY WRITING.
I know sharing is caring, but I’m an only child. Unfortunately, nothing in this ever-evolving virtual closet is up for borrowing. All written content on CuriousColumnist.com has been penned and edited by Moi (i.e. Jennifer Silverman). All written content is the intellectual property of Jennifer Silverman, and may not be “borrowed”, copied, reprinted, etc. without the express written consent of the author.

Lucky for you, although you may not borrow any of my articles, columns, blog posts, and/or compositions, they are available for reprinting. Click here to be transported to my contact page to begin the process. Once we agree on a deal (and a secret handshake), content may be reprinted provided the author’s byline, bio, and copyright notice are retained in their entirety. (The secret handshake is negotiable.)

If you come across something that resonates, and you are not employed by or affiliated with an entity that can republish it according to the stipulations above, please consider sharing it to social media, (especially since social media scares me, so I won’t do it myself) or linking to content rather than copy and pasting or “borrowing.” If you’re just not sure, please feel free to drop me a line via my contact page.

I'M AN AFFILIATE MARKETING FAN.
In order to monetize CuriousColumnist.com, I utilize the game-changing affiliate marketing platform, GoodPix. I am also a member of the way cool, Amazon Associates Program.
