A Heiry Writing Problem

Attention, fans of publishing legal information – and anyone else trying to figure out an author estate plan:

I’m at Writers in the Storm today, discussing how to choose the right people to inherit your copyrights and creative works. It’s an interesting topic, and closes out my recent author estate planning series at Writers in the Storm. Hop over and take a look:

Also, if you’re in the Sacramento area and interested in mystery novels, I hope you’ll join me next Tuesday night at 6pm at the Fair Oaks Public Library (in Fair Oaks, California, on the corner of Madison Ave. and Fair Oaks Boulevard) for a free, 90-minute presentation called THE GAME’S AFOOT: WRITING THE MYSTERY NOVEL. We’ll be talking about everything from sneaky setups to picking the perfect sleuth, and I would love to see you there!

And, finally, for those of you who neither write nor need to worry about an estate plan, here’s a Friday photo of our new mandarin dragonet:

This little guy still needs a name, so I’d love to hear your suggestions in the comments!
