Do you work in #publishing #AusLit #OzLit #BookPublishingIndustry #BookPublishing? Then you are probably doing unpaid overtime, facing structural barriers to success and earning less than you’re worth!

@torrentfreak Copyright should go back to 14 years, with one 14-year renewal term. This would follow the letter and spirit of the #Constitution, as copyright was originally intended to be.

#copyright was never intended to be a continuing income stream for the creator, and certainly not for the #heirs and #estates.

When rumors of 'American Dirt' began to spread
Fury arose from the literary world instead
Readers swiftly called for the book to be banned
And the publishing world won't soon forget the scandal
