I built this booksite on open source technology. I believe in the communities that create & distribute intellectual property for the sake of growing community and enhancing the underlying technology. In that spirit, I am licensing The Great Permission under a Creative Commons license.
In brief, the specific license I've chosen allows reusers to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the material in any medium or format, for noncommercial purposes only. It is my very strong intention that no reuser ever sell, relicense, or otherwise profit from any part of The Great Permission or any derivation thereof, since I may never receive any compensation for the years I worked to create it.
If others modify or adapt the material, they must license the modified material under identical terms.
This license requires that reusers credit the creator, Andrew P. Dillon.
This license covers all poems, audio, & recipes. Images are not covered by this license because Andrew P. Dillon does not have the authority to license all images.
The Great Permission was built as a modification of an open source Jekyll documentation theme created by Tom Johnson.
