As part of a project to create a library of libre literary artifacts and narrative schemes, I’m choosing to waive my rights over little parts of my CC BY-SA writings. To me it makes no sense to claim rights on inventions that may be too common to be strictly mine. But I want to open my inventions as libre culture, or libre lore.
So inside the chapters of this novel I am writing, there are ideas of plots, names, objects, phenomena, specific stories of the characters, and I want these little parts of my work to be public domain, even though the whole writings will probably stay CC BY-SA.
For instance, I wrote about a memory enhancement sleep chamber.
Here is the form I created on Internet Archive :
Also :
-
Here the Lemmy post (Libre Lore sub) about it.
-
The original work from which it comes from (it is in french language)
Does it look OK to you, or are there confusing aspects ?
I guess licensing the lore differently from the actual story makes sense if you are doing world building that spans multiple novels.
