The  ABCs’ and XYZ’s of Publishing Legalese


How to Stay Out of the Frying Pan and the Fire!

 

 

All authors need an overview of some of the important items that are “musts” when it comes to publishing. And there isn’t an author that doesn’t have questions about “legal stuff” and publishing. Today, you will get answers.

  • Do you know and understand how to keep and protect your intellectual property rights in copyright,  trademarks, publishing contracts, working with a literary agent, co-writing, and how to understand the legalese in the publishing and authoring changing worlds?
  • Do you know how to keep and protect your brand as it grows and becomes your strongest asset?  
  • How can you tell if your fiction masterpiece land will you in the frying pan because it’s loosely based on a real life situation?
  • What’s the process in starting down the path to a TV or movie deal based on your work?

 

You will have the answers to these questions and so much more after the April 11th session along with:

  • Copyrights
  • Joint authorship
  • Work for hire
  • Trademarks
  • Publishing contracts
  • Literary agent contracts and business points of negotiation
  • And lots more!

Your workshop presenter is Steve Replin, an intellectual property attorney who focuses his law practice on representing those in the creative arts such as writing, film, music, art, fashion, publishers, agents, managers, music labels and publishers, as well as other affiliated occupations. Steve is perpetually excited about helping new and emerging writers and other creatives build their careers with strategies around protected intellectual property rights, the right contracts, and a clear of where you want to go to in order to build your personal brand with strength and direction.   

He’s the author of the award-winning book, Where to Go When the Banks Says NO, used in universities for their finance courses. His book is a roadmap for entrepreneurs seeking funds to either start a business or grow what they have. His next book is For Women Only: Where to Go When the Bank Says NO, available this Spring.
