This may seem trite or even offensive to some who worship a more liberal God, but the teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints or Mormons are not exactly ambiguous. We need to stand up for values that have long since been devalued by the world in general.
I intend to do that. And I intend to do it legally. Despite the heated opposition, I believe this app to be legal and what's more, to be of benefit to authors and families in particular. If you don't agree, I'd appreciate hearing your side. Please feel free to share your reasons in the comments section. For those who agree with me, please make your voice heard. There aren't a lot of us out there feeling torn between our books and our beliefs, but there are enough.
And I hope there are enough people out there who although they might not share my particular beliefs or values, can at least see my Story Surgeon dream not as hate mail to all those published authors, but as the most sincere and heartfelt fan letter I've ever written.
It all began with The Wise Man's Fear. The book is the second in Patrick Rothfuss's fantasy series, and he completely botched it. He took the character I loved and turned him into an unrecognizable thief and womanizer. He filled an obscene number of pages with obscenities and completely random sex. Even the violence had suddenly crossed genres into horror. I asked myself many times. It could have been my new Harry Potter.
I would've shared it with the world. I already had shared Name of the Wind with everyone who would listen to me. But this? How could Rothfuss think this was a sequel?
It was Wise Man's Fear that clenched it for me. There needed to be a way for me to make the sequel into the book it was supposed to be. There had to be a way for me to clean up my favorite novels, so I could let my mom and little brothers read them without losing their innocence.
There wasn't. But there will be. I started my own development company. I've hired a team of programmers that assure me this can be done. On a small scale at first. IPad only, with file sharing on Dropbox or GoogleDrive. Then we'll branch out. We'll get our own servers and make sharing easy.
I know it will change the way we read books. The only question is when. But if my grassroots campaign isn't enough, it will take longer.
I'll take out a loan. I'll have to charge for the app. The user pool will grow slowly. There won't be as many shared filters to try out. I'll become obsessed with creating the needed filters and neglect my family and job. I'll be fired, lose my home, computer, and most important, my internet access.
The Story Surgeon General Blog will fizzle and with it, a dream that might have changed the world. In the meantime, I'll be the one trying desperately not to neglect his job and family.

His Majesty's Dragon is the first installment in the 9-book Temeraire Series. The characters were well-rounded, and there are some unique and lovable aspects of the world specifically the relationships between the captains and their dragons.
The setting was excellent, complete with historic realism in dialogue. Language - None. Sexuality - Mild. Its very good, it helped me install apps that i couldn't before I had this vpn.
If you want to install apps in the Google play store you need to clear it's cache and enter Google play with vpn I reccomend USA if you're not there.
Capitan Rex. It does what it's supposed to do.. Works extremely fine with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, didn't really notice the speed difference.. Easy to use, easy to connect n disconnect.. Not to mention it's totally FREE! Good job guys! Edited: Now i'm using xiaomi pocophone f1 and it's still works.
William Toto. Outstanding app and service. Constant connection and always watching out for me. Highly recommended to all. Saurav Rana. I just want to open some block sites but it's didn't open, thanks to touch vpn, u solve my all problems.
