A big tip of the hat to TBTP loyal follower Will G. from the UK for reminding me about the project called Anna’s Archive. This literary anarchist site keeps popping back up even when entire nations try to drive a metaphorical stake through its heart.
Anna’s Archive is a search engine for shadow libraries created by the pseudonymous Anna. It was founded in direct response to law enforcement efforts to close down Z-Library in 2022. It describes itself as aiming to “catalog all the books in existence” and to “track humanity’s progress toward making all these books easily available in digital form”.
Anna’s Archive mirrors Library Genesis, Open Library, Sci-Hub and Z-Library, and has scraped (downloaded the entirety of) the library catalog WorldCat and the scanned book database DuXiu. Anna’s Archive claims it does not host copyrighted materials and that it only indexes metadata that is already publicly available.
As of August 18, 2024, Anna’s Archive includes 36,615,662 books and 103,196,895 papers. via Wikipedia
Among the 36,515,662 books, I found a couple of my own. Although I probably didn’t need to be reminded that my first two books sold over 100,000 copies that I barely got paid for.

You can’t expect to generate income when you list your book at Anna’s Archive since by doing so you declare it open source.
I gave up on the notion of earning income from the books that I wrote in the 20th century. My first publisher was a consummate scammer. Then, when I ghost wrote a book, I had to threaten legal action just to get paid what was in my contract. It was all exhausting.
I gave up the notion of earning money from my books all together. I’m selling on the average 8 books a month and probably do 8 times better then 95 % of the independent publishers. I draw my satisfaction from the way that writing and publishing gives structure to my thinking processes. I admit that it elates me every time I see that one of my publications found a reader.
