This week we talk about why some works you thought were public domain might be back in copyright; why Wikipedia went dark; how a copyright law that did pass may affect you; school-book censorship; whether Amazon has gone all Capt. Jack Sparrow on us; why some publishing insiders are abandoning DRM; and a law that may stop some authors from writing for schools. Plus, we talk about why using twin stand-ins in your stories may not be a good idea.
Presented by leading lawyer Donna Ballman with literary agent Peter Cox.
Don’t forget – you can post topics for Donna to discuss in Donna’s Domain inside the Colony.
