I’ve been working on the form for the settlement agreement in the pirating lawsuit that I mentioned last week, but there are still things in it that I’m not sure about. Still, theoretically at least, I should get something for each of the 45 or so books of mine on their final list. It’s changed from the first one I saw, but that’s okay. But seeing all this and doing my little part to participate makes me even happier that I was a transactional lawyer when I practiced law, and not a litigator. I enjoyed drafting and reading and negotiating contracts. But court related stuff and documentation? Not my favorite. And as I’ve always said, probably here too, contracts are just another form of fiction. And I like writing fiction!
I’ve paused now and then in my manuscript
edits for the second book in my K-9 Crime Solvers series for Harlequin Romantic
Suspense while I take the time to fill out the lawsuit form. But about to concentrate
on it more again!

I hope you get a nice tidy sum. I do wonder how things will end up with all of this AI stuff. What's real? What's not? What's yours? What's mine? I wrote resumes and other employment documents for years and see them all over the internet. It's hard to prove what you really wrote or if you were the first to write it. Good thing you're a lawyer and you know what you're doing.
I wish I did know more about what I was doing, Sally. The form is somewhat tricky to fill out. Plus, as a transactional attorney rather than a litigator, a lot of this is confusing to me! But thanks for your good wishes!
