Description

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.
