> In 1989 when I wrote the topiary book for Longwood Gardens, I was
considered an author for hire. This meant that I was paid for my time but
Longwood owns the rights to the book. In this case, my name was on the
book, but any royalties were paid to Longwood Gardens and I have no control
over the book. Talk to an attorney to be sure of your rights.
