: : : How would one go about obtaining a copyright for a manuscript they just completed? : Dear Mr. Kerr, : The copyright law covers what you have done. A copyright can be registered but the usually is little reason to register. Once you can get a publisher, the publisher usually takes care of the copyright. : You had better have a GOOD agreement with the publisher to protect yourself. : If you show what you have written, the idea is not protected, only the mode of expression. : You have to understand the law and even then things can be tough. : M.
