Since many writers visit this site, to whom copyright is important, I wanted
to let you know about one of my writing projects. I have a brand new blog called
Copyright Talk, www.copyrighttalk.com
which launched just this past week.
I would love to hear any comments or questions on copyright that you have -
posted either on the blog or emailed directly to me - so that I can touch on the kinds of
topics you all would like to hear about.
I am an attorney, so I view everything from a slightly legal angle, but the
blog is intended for writers, musicians, and others who own or who are impacted
by copyright laws. I can cover anything from basic explanations to analysis of
current developments to understanding and negotiating rights in publishing
contracts. So help me shape this thing and make it useful.

Parker, JD, is a cum laude graduate of the Southwestern University
School of Law in Los Angeles and was licensed to practice law by the Texas
Supreme Court in 1988. She completed her undergraduate studies at the University
of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. In her Austin, Texas law practice she
primarily represents musicians, school teachers, and parents of children with
disabilities. Married to a musician, she has an intimate experience with the
issues faced by songwriters, and with what she calls the "creative winds" that
blow through their personalities.
