You need to state that you assert your moral rights as author as well as including a copyright line. By the way, you cannot copyright a title.

You will own the copyright of what you write and the moral rights the author and is protected by law. If you want to protect it you should mark with a copyright sign your name and date.

You're welcome, Annodomini, and thank you - it's one of my favourites too!

Thanks, MS - I will have a look. Like your name (and the Sonata), by the way.

This might help, Annodomini.

I have been editing a little booklet of memoirs for my U3A writing group and some of them have raised the question of copyright. I can't say it bothers me much as I doubt if anyone would want to copy my memories but if any of you grans has any information you can share with me, I'd be happy to have it.
