This webinar will focus on the role of contracts in publishing law: contracts with agents, contracts with traditional publishers, and contracts with indie publishing platforms like Amazon KDP. It will boil down the key points you will find in these contracts to their essentials and emphasize clauses authors should pay particular attention to. We'll also spend some time on how to research agents and publishers to find the right fit for your work and separate out business and reputational questions from red flags in contracts.
