Thanks for bringing this information to our fingertips. I look forward to checking-in to read the rest of what you’re graciously sharing with us. Don’t worry about it getting boring. We’re sponges ready to absorb all that you write. We want to learn and learn even more about this business.

Some publishers are out there to steal your talent and profit from it themselves, making the lame claim that this is ‘just business’. That alone says a lot about their lack of integrity and of their greed. Some make demands as if you are they’re employee and talk down to you as if you are a child. We should all be working together as a high functioning team, in order to produce quality books.

I am in the market for a literary agent to work with me in order to ensure that what happened to me in the past won’t repeat itself. And if I cannot find an agent you can bet I will be checking credentials and references of the companies that I do submit to.

Great topic and I lookd forward to hearing more.

Thanks for bringing up the topic.

I hope the things I bring in the next months will continue to be helpful.

Look who’s talking. LOL. How are you?

Some of this stuff is going to get pretty boring so I’m going to break it up from time to time. I’m going to do my best to explain to the best of my ability the different parts of the contract. Just keep in mind that it won’t take the place of you letting a lawyer look over the contract. But I’m hoping it will help.

There is no standard length.

How are you? It took me a few minutes to actually read the message that said to use Internet Explorer. I posted the contract because I remembered how much I wanted to see one for myself. As far as self publishing goes, check out Renee Flager’s website. She’s a master at self publishing and extremely generous with information.
