I have two clients who have not paid me for what I wrote for them.  One is a
website, the other a corporation.  I have sent invoices that have go
unacknowledged.  I went as far as to mail the last round of invoices
registered, so a company representative had to sign for the invoice.  When I
called one company, I was told that the invoice is being processed--this was
in early Sept.  The invoice was submitted in February.  Both companies have
already published my work.

What do I do?  To sue these companies (both are out of state) takes
resources.  And, I'm trying to make money, not spend more.  Obviously, both
companies are in violation of the contract we signed between us, and all
rights to the works are mine.  But, I'd like my money.  On the other hand,
both invoices would make good tax deductions as Bad Debt.  Both companies
appear to be having financial problems, and I wonder if I ever will get any
money from them.

Any thought on this?  Has anyone else encountered this situation?
