publishing
julilly:
Technically there's no such thing as copyright without a lawyer filling out paperwork to that effect. But there is always intellectual property laws protecting the things that you write. It's a little more challenging to fight, but they have them in N. America and Europe.

Julie, you should carry on with Broken as a novel because it's a great story.
I think Song For The Undead would do well as original fiction too, because it's AU all it would take is a few name changes. Have you guys ever thought of going down that road with it?

Thank you! That's such a huge compliment so...thank you! lol. We've had a couple people tell us that before. And yes, we're actually thinking about going for it once we finish it. :) As of right now, we're only about halfway through writing it lol. So it'll be awhile before we attempt it. :)
Carter-Orange:
Well, I hope you do get it published one day :)

Thank you! I do think Broken would make a good young adult novel; I've started it twice with Nick as a high school basketball star. I grew up reading Lurlene McDaniel's books, which are all about teenagers facing life-threatening illnesses or the death of a loved one or something tragic like that, and I LOVED those books, and they've had a huge impact on my writing, so I definitely think there is an audience for that kind of book. I just haven't gotten very far on it yet, so it's on the backburner for now, until my inspiration is right.
And as for Undead, yeah, Rose and I have been talking about it, because someone else suggested it and it would be fairly easy to de-Backstreet-ify it, since, like you said, it's very AU. It would need some definite revising, of course, but not full-on rewriting. Zombies are so in right now, it might actually work! LOL Thanks for thinking we could!
