How to Copyright a Book in India
Copyrighting your book in India is a critical step toward protecting your intellectual property and work from illegal usage. Here’s a simple guide to walk you through the process:
Step 1: Understand Copyright Basics
Understanding the fundamentals of copyright is critical for preserving your book and your author rights. Copyright is a legal privilege granted to creators of original works, such as books, to govern how their work is used.

Valentine in Montréal
Don't be fooled by the title. The story is actually very interesting: My name is Valentine. I am twenty-three years old and I work at a little store at Berri-UQAM métro. I am very ordinary-looking and Barney, who works the same shift as me at the store, says I do not know how to dress. I have been working there for four years, and I have never missed a day. This is why sometimes I seem familiar to people, even though they can't place me.
