Writing for a Living
This useful book covers the business side of writing, and
is invaluable for those who make their living as professional
writers, or would like to do so.
First, Michael Legat encourages you to
consider why and how you want to write for a living.
Then he covers the cost of setting up as a writer, submissions,
copyright and contracts, income from the sale of your work, sources of
additional income, tax and VAT, and self-publishing.
The result is a clear and practical guide to the
financial and business side of writing, which will be immensely useful to
anyone who is contemplating writing for a living.
