Summary

If legal stuff makes your head spin, you’re not alone. But here’s the truth: understanding a few  key  legal basics can save you  major  headaches later (and possibly even your bank account). That’s why I asked intellectual property and business attorney Olivia Mayness, to join me on Book Marketing Simplified. Olivia breaks it all down in a way that’s clear, smart, and actually doable . Olivia’s not just a legal expert, she’s also a creative herself, which means she  gets  what authors need. We talk about the most common legal blind spots authors face like: if authors can use lyrics or quotes in their books how to protect your book from AI if authors should trademark a book title and much more. Whether you're self-published, traditionally published, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you move forward with clarity and avoid some scary mistakes down the road.
