NYC Trip Report (Part 1): Mark Fowler, Rights Of Writers, and The Center For Fiction
Not sure how many of you used Inkspot or subscribed to Inklings back in the early days of the Web (whoa, that sounds so ANCIENT now, doesn't it?) but one of my columnists was Mark Fowler. Mark did the ASK THE LAWYER column. SOOOO great to finally meet Mark in person.
Mark is an attorney at Satterlee Stephens Burke & Burke LLP, and also blogs at RIGHTS OF WRITERS: A Blog About Writing And The Law.
I strongly advise you to check out Mark's blog, which has a ton of great info for writers. Mark says he is also open to suggestions about topics he should blog about, but says that he's unable (for legal reasons) to answer questions that are specific to your own situation e.g. individual advice.
Mark is also on the board of The Center For Fiction, the only nonprofit in the U.S. solely dedicated to celebrating fiction, working every day to connect readers and writers.
Anyway, check out the view from the floor where he works:
THANK you, Mark, for taking the time to get together!

This post brought back great memories of Inkspot and Inklings and the earliest days of my belief that I was going to be a writer. I remember the newsletters well and Mark's column, and for years kept printed copies of them in my file drawer. It was a fabulous resource and I was sad to see it go. Thanks for all the work you did at Inkspot.
Aw Heather, thank you so much for this comment! Made me all misty-eyed, it did.
