Your Creativity is a Gift; Why Give it Away?
If you are an author, screenwriter, composer, songwriter, artist, filmmaker, photographer or even a business owner, you need to know about copyright.
It’s important to share your work with the world. But it’s as important to be recognised and rewarded for it.
Here’s What You Will Find Out in Copyright Made Easy:
- What copyright protects and what it doesn’t
- How to stay in control of your copyrights
- How to stop getting ripped off.
Get to Know Intellectual Property (IP)
Copyright Made Easy will introduce you to the world of copyright and explain:
- Copyright’s place in Intellectual Property Law and how it differs from Trademarks, Patents and Design Rights
- What works Copyright covers and whether to Assign or License your rights… (going for the second is better)
- How to know when a work is protected by Copyright.
Jargon-Free Language
The book is written for creatives and it doesn’t dwell on confusing laws or baffling legal judgments. It uses a language that is simple and you can relate to.
The book will unpack the meaning of concepts such as ‘originality’, ‘idea’ and ‘expression’ so you will not only understand them; you’ll become confident using them.
For example, you will get to know:
- What rights you get with Copyright
- How long your Copyright lasts
- Who really owns Copyright.
Real Life Copyright Cases
The book is written by a media law solicitor who is also an author, TV screenwriter and producer. He has seen first-hand what creatives experience and go through with their work.
Each chapter gives striking examples from real creative works, so you can learn from and shield your work. For instance, how Geroge Harrison run into great trouble with his song, My Sweet Lord.
A Practical Resource for Every Creative Mind
Copyright Made Easy is filled with practical information, so you get to know:
- How Option Agreements work and how to avoid signing a bad one
- How to avoid your work being stolen – and how to work out when it has
- When you can use other creative works in your own – and how much you can take.
You will also find out:
- Why infringement and plagiarism are not the same
- The truth about Poor Man’s Copyright
- Children works and copyright.
How to Make Money Using Copyright
Most creatives struggle to make a living from their work, despite pouring endless energy, skill and imagination into it. This is very unfair.
Now, if you want to give it away, fair enough, do so. But understand, at least, what you are giving away and, most importantly, learn what’s worth keeping and how to go about it.
Copyright Made Easy is a fun way to get to know your rights, how to use them wisely and, ultimately, how to exploit them.
Get your copy today and make copyright your finest weapon.

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
