Browsing this site

This website serves public pages, images, and articles. It does not include an account system, advertising trackers, newsletter collection, or an on-site contact database. The hosting provider may process technical request information, such as IP address and browser details, to deliver and secure the website.

Your Story Map draft

The Story Map worksheet keeps answers in page memory while you work. If you choose Save, it stores a draft in this browser only. You can restore, download, or clear it. No answers are transmitted to Ervin or PocketAuthor. Clearing browser data can remove a saved draft; downloaded copies remain under your control.

Booking and inquiries

Booking, coaching, speaking, media, and podcast links take you to PocketAuthor. Information you choose to submit there is handled by PocketAuthor under its own privacy notice. This site does not receive a copy of your message.

Interview playback

The interview player connects to Buzzsprout only after you select Listen. Buzzsprout may process your IP address, browser information, and playback activity under its own privacy practices. Minimizing keeps the player loaded; closing removes it and stops playback. You can also open the original episode directly.

External services

Social networks, book retailers, and other linked websites have their own privacy practices. PocketAuthor links include campaign labels identifying this website as the referral source; they do not include personal form information.
