Cover plagiarism is one of the topics covered in this month\'s AskALLi Member Q&A with Michael La Ronn and Sacha Black.

Other questions include:

• In the United States, should I register my copyright to send ARCs to readers?
• Does ALLi offer access to scriptwriters?
• My contract with my literary agent is scheduled to close in forty-five days. Can I self-publish my book on pre-order?
• What\'s the best way to handle character backstories that don\'t end up in my book?

And more!
