I am a self-confessed techno-phobe and luddite seeking a writer to give life to my creations "The Spacekins."
The characters are tiny astronauts who live in the Asteroid Belt, they and their environs are made almost entirely from found, salvaged and recycled materials.
I have had interest from several hybrid and self-publishers, but I am not a writer - and I'm afraid my attempts at story telling don't do the artwork justice.
I am keen to inspire a writer of similar humour and imagination to help give these little beings a place in the universe.
Hello everyone , firstly I hope you are all keeping well and being creative.Â

I am a screenwriter and have several scripts with known directors and producers with connections to Universal and Netflix etc. I sold seven scripts last month alone that are now making major offers of Hollywood stars. I am searching for an agent that can help me deal with contracts and get scripts to those that are unsolicited. I have done well getting contacts and scripts up till now but think it’s time to be represented.Â

First time I have posted in the community since the website was updated. Good to be back.
My query has to do with comic strips: I drew a strip back in the mid-nineties. It is a strip I tried to get into newspapers. I only had one published. There weren't that many but I want to redraw them as they are all getting a bit faded now. My question is what year would I put on the redraws if they are exactly the same? Would I put the original year (1994) or would I have to put the current year?
I'm updating a Christmas story I wrote in 2000 and am wondering what people are doing about including the pandemic in light-hearted works. Do I ignore it and describe a pre-covid world in the hope that such normality will have returned by the time of publication, or do I slide it into the text, imagining that in three or four years' time, kids will still be regarding masks, distancing, bubbles, etc., as a real and necessary part of Christmas???
Hi
I have decided to self publish my children's picture book and found an illustrator, which all seems to be going well so far. It feels like such a huge project as its my first time that I'm trying not to overwhelm myself (cos I'll end up telling myself that I can't do it) so for now I'm just looking at platforms to publish with. What do people think of Blurb/ Lulu/ Bookbaby/ Createpsace - in terms of services, pricing, speed, usability, ease for first time publishers?
I've heard that Createspace is 'on its way out'??

I am currently writing a book about my favorite artists and bands. I will be mentioning many song titles and band names. I will not be quoting any song titles and there will be nothing negative about any of the songs or artists.
Where do I stand from a legal/copyright point of view in the UK?
