I've now been referenced as an "et al".
Im now legally a published author
Then again, some might argue that sharing the designation with millions of other people makes it SLIGHTLY less prestigious..
As the winner of Time Magazine's person of the year in 2006, I disagree.
Interesting viewpoint, where did you publish it?
ET AL GANG REPRESENT!!!
Just change your last name to Et Al.
Then vigorously protect your copyright in the court system.
But et al. is by far the most published author, so they are at least sharing in the most prestigious title.
