New guide helps authors get book rights back from publishers

Pamela Samuelson quoted in Imperial Valley News, April 5, 2015

“Most often those books are commercially available for the first few years after they’re published, but then linger on publisher backlists,” Samuelson said. “In later years, when neither the publisher nor the author is making money from the books, the work is no longer promoted, and the public can’t access them. Getting rights back from the publisher is not only feasible, but also necessary to bring the work to a new audience.”
