The Writer Got Screwed (But Didn't Have To)
Review of the business and legal resource for writers. |
Afraid of getting screwed? Then get this book. Been screwed? Then get this
book. Know someone who's been screwed? Then tell them to get this book. If
you're a writer who wants to work in Hollywood, you better get this book! "The
Writer Got Screwed" is your bible. Read it, understand it, revere it. No other
book so clearly and simply dissects the legal and business practices of writing
for the entertainment industry. Cutting through all the b.s., Wharton helps you
understand what all the legal jargon means. She explains how to protect your
work, find good representation and, most importantly, how to avoid getting sued
and screwed. She provides practical advice on everything from copyrights,
contracts, agents, managers, lawyers, you name it. There's even a section on
cyberspace, the wild new frontier for wordsmiths.
"The industry", as everyone likes to call it, is swarming with sharks. It is,
unfortunately, rife with stories of writers and artists getting screwed. That's
the bad news. The good news is you have a weapon. Knowledge. It's all here. If
your serious about a career as a writer, then this book will be indispensable.
