Show Notes

You've been dreaming of the day when understanding book contracts and subsidiary rights is the most important thing in the world. Well, we share that dream with you and here's a primer.

Hey Collaborist - we recognize that the world around book contracts is often mysterious and getting information about them is only as good as the source (and there are a lot! and they aren't always good!). We got a question about how it all works in practice and on this episode of Collaborcast, Ben talks about general terms, what they mean, how to understand them, and ways YOU might think about them when the day comes.

We talk movies! Translations! Territories! Options! We talk about the costs of publishing and the Terrible, No Good Intersection of Art and Commerce! Ready? We're about to help you on your quest of understanding book contracts and subsidiary rights.

We also, not exactly stealthily, bring up issues around labor being discussed in general but specifically by striking Harper Collins employees. An article about that can be found here - https://www.chicagotribune.com/entert...
