Not on Your Life! Contract Clauses I Wouldn’t Sign
Presented by: Martin L. Shoemaker
Legally I CAN’T advise you on your publishing contracts. (And neither can your agent. Did you know that?) But I can tell you what I would do—and wouldn’t. In this session, I’ll look at egregious contract terms and tell you why I wouldn’t sign them. What YOU do is up to you.
