Q: Do you have any knowledge of contracts with places like iUniverse? Wouldn't they have a problem with my doing this since they sell electronic version of my books? (Not that anyone has ever bought one)
I would be all for doing this, but I'm wondering about them. I'll look at my contracts. It's further complicated (I think) by the fact that one of my titles was reissued as part of their Star program, and they have more rights to that somehow.
I am so far out of my area of knowledge with this kind of thing. My impulse is to ask them but I don't want to be a naive fool.
A: The iUniverse FAQ page makes it very clear that you own the rights. There's no qualifier that says "However, in the Star program...."
Here's what it says:
Contracts & Agreements
Do I own the rights to my book or do you, the publisher?
The author retains the rights to all of his or her book. By utilizing iUniverse's services, you are simply granting us a non-exclusive license to publish and distribute the work for you.
I'm not a lawyer, but their lawyers would shoot them if they stated things so baldly and it were only true under certain conditions.
I think you are 100% good to go!
