The Backrooms Creator?

 

With all the excitement surrounding Kane Pixel's upcoming Backrooms movie, it's easy to overlook the fact that he didn't actually create the Backrooms lore.

No one really owns the Backrooms. Here’s a breakdown of the copyright status of The Backrooms:

The initial 4chan post and the original image of The Backrooms are considered to be in the public domain, as they were posted anonymously and have been treated as free for anyone to use.

Most of the expanded lore and user-generated content, particularly on wikis like the Backrooms Wiki on Wikidot, is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 (CC-BY-SA). This means you can create your own stories. 

The core IDEA is free for anyone to expand upon (often under CC-BY-SA), but specific, original adaptations, like in books, media & movies are protected and copyrighted. I am not throwing shade on Kane Pixel’s creativity; I am only stating the facts when it comes to the Backrooms. Please feel free to comment if you wish. I will go see the movie since everything Backrooms fascinates me.

NOTE: A24 has the copyright to their movie, but not the actual word, The Backrooms since the word and the concept of the Backrooms is an internet creepy pasta and it's origin is unknown. Thousands of people have created videos, literature and other media involving the Backrooms. If A24 suddenly started asking social media platforms to remove everything related to the backrooms, they would be alienating half of the Backrooms fans. The fans are what made the whole concept popular!

Betrayal

 

As my son and I drove along Lazycreek Road in our small town, we passed Oakbridge Road, and I casually wondered if my ex-friend still lived there. Curious, he asked what had happened between us. Although I felt a bit uncomfortable sharing, I realized he was now an adult at 29, so I decided to open up. I explained that the fallout occurred 40 years ago in 1986 when I was in love with a man who didn’t feel the same way. I had confided in her about becoming intimate with my boyfriend, which was a significant moment for me as it was my first time. To me, it felt like magic, and I viewed him as my soulmate. 

My ex-friend and I had been close since middle school, and I had hoped she would keep my secret safe. Unfortunately, she shared it with her boyfriend, who later became her husband. He told her to distance herself from me, labeling me a "slut." At that time, I was in my early 20s and certainly didn’t fit that description. My ex-friend and I came from conservative families, but I was the black sheep in mine. That year, I not only lost my first true love when he broke up with me a few months later, but I also lost a friend due to ignorance and stupidity. I felt a wave of disappointment when I learned that she had moved to Menifee in the 90s. Though this entry may not relate directly to my books, it offers a glimpse into how I draw inspiration for my male characters from real men I've encountered. Comments are appreciated.

Unpopular Opinion

 

Authors keep trying to justify that they wrote/write their own books and did not use ai, even though they weren’t ask to prove it. Just stop. If you’ve been writing for quite some time and have published several books throughout the years, you don’t have to justify yourself.

Just put your books out there, let the readers enjoy your books. Another thing: Yes, AI paranoia runs rampant but just because a publisher or indie author uses a video that may seem like ai generated to advertise an author’s book, doesn’t mean the book itself is ai generated! 

Trolls and haters will always cause online drama to deter readers away from author’s books because that’s what they do. Believing their lies will only mean you’re missing out on a potentially good novel. By the way, authors shouldn’t have to pay an influencer to promote their book. If the influencer likes your book then they should mention it in their podcast or stream, for free. Indie authors shouldn't pay someone to review their books either. Reviews/rates will come when the readers posts them. I made a short video of this blog entry, not all of what I have written here made it into the video, though. if you have your own opinion about this entry, please I encourage people to post their comments.
