Writers in Wonderland: Keeping Your Words Legal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780989250412)

How do you avoid a Lewis Carroll Wonderland of defamation lawsuits, plagiarism scandals, and IRS proceedings? Many writers see the law as a Lewis Carroll fantasy-inside out and totally illogical. They would rather write than worry about legal issues. But authors who ignore the law are the real residents of Wonderland. Kathryn Page Camp uses everyday language and shares cases with interesting facts to explain the basic legal principles of interest to writers. Editorial Reviews A KIRKUS' Indie Books of the Month Selection (April 2014). "A comprehensive, usable explanation of contracts, copyright and other key legal concepts that all writers need to understand." KIRKUS REVIEWS "WRITERS IN WONDERLAND isn't just informative and wise, it is FUN! Finally, a lawyer who can be helpful without making us want to scream." Michael Poore, author of UP JUMPS THE DEVIL "In prose that is friendly but assertive, attorney Camp addresses readers like a speaker who knows the audience members have paid to hear her speak and who is determined to give them their money's worth. And that she does." CHRISTIAN COMMUNICATOR, book review by Amanda Dreher
