: : Greetings, : : I would like to know how I would proceed with having my poetry copywrtitten?. I have over 100 poems that I have written in the last two years. Is the poor mans way adviceable?. I know the fee for copywritten is $30.00, does it matter how many pages are being copywritten or is that a flat fee?. Because I am breaking my work down for publishing in 2 or 3 books should I have it copywritten by book?. I know that if I go the poor mans way I would lose the option of being heard at Federal court and having the attorney fees paid. What options would I have if somehow my work was stolen using the poor mans way?. : : Your response is greatly appreciated THANK YOU : Dear Debra Banks, : What you create is covered by the law. Registration is for published and/or unpublished works. : An unpublished copyright registration seems to me to usually be a waste of money. I have read a section of statute that I don't understand that seem so suggest that a registered unpublished work does not seem to have to be reregistered if published. I've seen no cases on this. : All talk is really a waste. Unless you have a publisher for the work, it is usually a waste of time, money and worry to register the copyright. If you have a publisher, the publisher will take care of registration. If you publish youself, all you have to do is to be able to sell the published work. : Once published it is important to register quickly to preserver all rights. : M.
