International Books Cafe Presents Previews of our Bookstore

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS ACTIVITY CHAT BOX

One of our members had a question. Ron Parsley asked:
If someone contacts me to buy the rights to my book, for a movie or T.V. show, what would be a good selling price?
Thank you,
Ron


My response was that we all need to know a little about how the industry works if we are to negotiate for our professional income, so my suggestion is to pick up a copy of one of the industry books from your friendly neighborhood bookstore, or library. One of the books I have accessable to me at present is one that was written by Alexander Kopelman, Kathryn Shagas, and Judith Levine:
National Writers Union Guide to Freelance Rates & Standard Practice. (1997), about $19.95 back then, don't know now. I am sure there is a updated edition, but this is the one I had and the one that spelled out to me some of the things of which we all should be aware.

If anyone knows of others, and/or could help on response, please send a message to me, and i will post it up here as a membership conversation, on the main page.

Thank You for your Support!
