Many authors have questions about copyrighting their works in the beginning phases of writing their books. When you initially publish a book, the publication date acts as a type of copyright on that information. You are the author and are taking claim to the information by publishing it.
For instance my first book, “10 Rules to Survive the Dating Jungle” was initially published on January 21ST, 2012. So if someone published the same book with same stories on the inside after I did, I obviously published it first. And they are my personal stories, unless someone else was married to a sociopath, it’s pretty obvious I own the copyright to this content.
However, if for some reason you ended up having to go to court, that publication date alone will probably not be enough evidence. You want to cover your basis and file an official copyright with the US Library of Congress. It’s very easy and simple to do. You want to take the steps to protect your literary works. After all, you put in the handwork to write & publish it, so you also need to protect it.
It is only $35 per literary work to file the copyright. Definitely worth the small investment. Just visit: https://eco.copyright.gov/eService_enu/start.swe?SWECmd=Start&SWEHo=eco.copyright.gov
You need a finished manuscript before filling out the copyright paper work. So don’t file after only writing two chapters. Do it after you are completed or even after first book is published. Once the book is published it will be assigned an ISBN number, which is unique to each book. The ISBN number (International Standard Book Number) will be attached to your filing. Then you can mail in an actual copy of the book to the Library of Congress. This is how I’m registering all of my books.
Once you have the official “Library of Congress Catalog-in-Publication data” you can re-publish with that information.

Work Ethic: The Right Actions to Create a Successful Lifestyle It isn’t what you say, it’s what you do that will create the life you want. The high school years are a great time for students to build valuable and rewarding action characteristics to increase self-esteem and deliver results. While enjoying these years, students should be developing the right mindset to achieve the success they desire in the future. In order for success to happen, for students to have that lifestyle they often speak of wanting, they must become adults with a solid, results-based work ethic. Wasting these four years can’t be a part of the plan. By using their time in high school to build the right actions for a successful lifestyle, students can ensure themselves a bright future, no matter the obstacles they will encounter. Work Ethic is for the high school student expecting to live life successfully, and is willing to do the right growth actions to shape a lifestyle of fulfillment, fun, and results.
Pierce Brunson is a graduate of Temple University in Philadelphia, and spends his time working as a mentor and guest speaker while developing businesses that help improve the high school experience for students and teachers. He has 13 years’ experience teaching in the public school system as a high school Social Studies teacher, majoring in World History and Sociology. He believes everyone can do more to help improve the education system in their local communities, which is part of the backbone of any society. Pierce’s advice is simple: stop complaining and do something to help improve the situation for all. Good people have to stop being afraid to fight for what they believe in, and get in the game to move the world toward equality and justice.

Published author from Richter Publishing, Elizabeth Bunbury’s “On the Road: From a Block of Clay”
In her previous book, FROM A BLOCK OF CLAY, POTLUCK EDITION, Elizabeth Bunbury concluded with these words: “Let the journey begin…” Well, her journey has truly begun, and she is now “on the road”. Bunbury believes it is the path God prepared specifically for her to travel even before she was born. While there were many detours, with God’s help– and of others whom he sent to walk the path with her—she is moving forward. We are all on a journey, and we all have a story to tell. The stories in ON THE ROAD show the progression of Bunbury’s journey with its twists, turns, back-tracking, and going forward again. Your life’s journey may be somewhat similar to hers, or quite different. Either way, it is her prayer that, as you read, you will realize you are not alone on this journey called life. May you learn there is hope that a new, smoother path could be just ahead. “THE ROAD TO SUCCESS IS ALWAYS UNDER CONSTRUCTION.” Author Unknown
