Another ALCS question

caseycasey
edited March 2014 in - Writing Problems
One of my stories has been published in the PF Annual. It has an ISBN number. Is this treated as an anthology? Do I post it under books? If so do I use the number of stories for the number of co-authors?
I'm finding this very confusing but want to get it right. This was published before I signed the new D C Thomson contract.

    I would say yes to all of the above!

    Another to ring and ask about.

    Another query to ask about. What happens if they were accepted and paid for before signing the contract, but not published until after? Which contract applies then? Confused beyond measure.

    These new contracts have certainly raised a lot of questions- doubt anyone considered these complications for writers.

    I was told that anything submitted before the contract was signed wouldn't be subject to the new rules. (Had it in email which I printed out)

    Told by DCT I mean, not ALCS. I asked a lot of questions before signing.

    I rang ALCs and I have been informed that as long as I hold the copyright I can post my stories on ALCS.
    The letter from DC Thomson enclosing the new contract says 'you retain the copyright to you content'. As far as I am concerned this clearly means I can put my PF and TWN stories on ALCS.
    Hooray.
