Advanced Lecture on Copyright

14 videos to help writers understand copyright.

We create copyright as we write a story or novel. We never sell anything, we license copyright.

So the understanding of copyright becomes the most critical element of being a successful writer.

These fourteen lectures work through copyright, from the basics to the more advanced, and on to how to keep studying copyright and learning. Knowing copyright helps every writer make more money. That basic. And that important.

One of six Advanced Business Lectures to help writers move forward in business.
