Count me in. Do we just submit our contributions as articles, or do we opt to write specific chapters? I have a lot of energy I'm willing to offload into this. Also - Could you explain more about the royalty terms in detail? Or is that private information? If so, then will this be conveyed by e-mail? Thanks |

Thanks for your post. This is the very thread where everyone who wants his/her write up to be included posts them. You can post as much as a chapter or as small as a sentence. Payments will based on each person's entry in terms of the quantity and quality of entry. Remember that royalties can continue to shower in for a lifetime. My own first personal book on addiction, I am still being paid weekly MORE than my profession in which I have AN M.SC! |

After thinking about this in detail, what about the copywright issues involved in posting excerpts of a book on an online forum before publication? How do you stop people from copying/pasting content and distributing the book for nothing before it actually sees the light of day? My suggestion would be to open a Google Docs account for this purpose and send interested participants/writers the username and password upon submission of their first entry. |
