Submitting a short story for publication?
What would happen if I would like to submit a short story for publication to a literary magazine, but it was part of an idea for a longer book of stories that I plan on writing later? If it were to be published, that magazine would have first rights to my story, so would I still be able to use it in my book later on? Thanks!

No need to pay anything to have your work copyrighted. It's your intellectual property as soon as you have written it.

First and most important, pay the $25.00 to The Library Of Congress and get your story copyrighted BEFORE you submit it to any one for possible publication, second, if it is published all you'll have sold is the right to publication, not to actual story or characters, you can still go on and write more based on the same idea later. Wishing you the best of luck.
