Changing The Rules

There is a discussion
in literary circles
about changing copyright
from the lifetime of the writer
plus 50 or 70 years
(depending on the country)
to
30 years.

This would significantly
impact
the works that are created.

There would be no incentive,
for example,
to create elaborate worlds.

I’ve been writing
in one of my worlds
for 12 years.
I have merely started.

The long fantasy sagas
and interconnected romance series
would all go away.

Changing the rules
changes what is created.

As a business builder,
watch for these changes.
Look for new opportunities.
Evaluate if your current products/services
are still relevant
after the rule changes.

If you are pushing
for changes in the rules,
look at ALL the impacts
of that rule change.
And there WILL be impacts,
likely ones you haven’t considered.
