: : Hi, : : I need some advise on copywriting. : : A 14yr old child has written some songs that she wants to sell. A company told her to have the songs notarized and send them to him. Is this enough to protect her songs from being stolen or should she have them copywrited and how does she do it. : : Thank you for your assistance, it is deeply appreciated. : Dear Delane, : The fact that notorization was suggest, is a good omen that whom ever the songs are sent to has good intentions. : There is no need to do anything at this time. An unpublished copyright could be applied for. Its issuance would only give the right to sue and then only those who have had acess to the songs. : The copyright law covers a work from its creation. Registrion of a publisher work is best done within three months. : Remember. The copyright only covers the expresssion not the idea conveyed. It is difficult but not impossible to protect an idea. : Scripts for instance are usually in danger. : M.
