Notes from Chris
Episode 1225
Today’s listener has a legal question that I can actually answer with some confidence: “When writing a book, how do I get permission to use another author's work?” This can apply to a lot more than just books—it’s fundamentally a question about copyright and what is permissible in terms of quoting or referencing or otherwise using someone else’s intellectual property."Hi, Chris, it's Lisa from Sydney, Australia. I'm a big fan and have been listening to the show where he is now. Have had some success with my first side hustle, and I'm not looking to launch my second, which involves books and reading is something I'm passionate about. I'm struggling to find out how I get permission from an author to use that work. I've spent hours online trying to find the answer and got nowhere. My question is, should I just use that work anyway and start now? Thanks. I look forward to your advice."Listen to today's episode to learn more...
