Hi, I am about to finish a book on cancer therapies and have included short reports on 3 living celebrities with a picture of each among them Lance Armstrong who have survived cancer and are healthy again in order to encourage the readers to keep up their faith.

The book will be sold commercially. Or in other words: do the thousands of newspapers ask public figures for their express permission before writing about them or printing images that show them? Ron, Great question. However, the fact that you are using information that has been widely discussed in the media is a strong indication that the information fits within the public interest exception.

You should not go as far as to make it appear as if any of the celebrities are promoting or endorsing your book, but reporting on and discussing information which is already publicly available and of public interest should not be a problem.

11 Powerful Ways to Market Children’s Books

I am currently writing a book that is dedicated in memory of someone I served with. I have spoken with his family, and they have read my draft of the manuscript and have agreed I can use his name last name only as a character in the book. That is ok, because it is express permission correct? Joseph, you have taken the appropriate and sensitive approach by talking to the family and getting their consent. Good for you. As a lawyer, I encourage you to get this consent in writing. An email will do. I just ordered the book..

God Bless one day at a time.. Larry, First, read her book.

I did a lot of research on this topic before I published my memoir. So I took out media insurance. I also understand that the statute is two years from publishing date that a person is permitted to take action on an author. Debby, The statute of limitations varies state by state in the U. For defamation claims, they range from one year to four years after the first publication of the defamatory statement.

Bill, I love your comment. It illustrates wonderful points. Parody is a powerful way to make a statement about a person or issue, and the more outrageous the better. The key goal is a reasonable person should not see the parody as a statement of fact, so there is no defamation. Another issue to consider is the right of publicity. Is using Trump is this manner piggybacking on his fame in order to sell your book?

Anatomy of a book cover

But you are not implying that Trump endorses your book or you are somehow affiliated. In fact, just the opposite. Since he is a public figure, and portraying him as a egotistical clown is all over the internet, this is the sort of public discussion that the First Amendment protects. All that being said, there is always a risk that Trump could sue.

The suit might get thrown out of court, but he could still bring one. Consider that a marketing opportunity; think of the publicity and how many books you will sell. But you might also look into buying media perils insurance or business liability insurance. That way the insurance company would pay for the attorneys. Before you pay the premium, discuss your project with an insurance agent to determine how much coverage you will get and at what price.

In the fake article, people commit outrageous crimes while listening to her show.

  5. The story is parody, ridiculous, and never alleges this person is purposely driving people to crime. The show, for the record, is shock jock material, and the fake article supports that by referring to her as a potty mouth, vulgar, etc. Max, The sad truth is someone can always sue you. The case may be weak, or even groundless, but you would have to get an attorney to help you show that to the court. Make it clear that what you say cannot be taken as a statement of fact by a reasonable person.

    Your concept sounds interesting and like something that should be written. There is a risk she may be vindictive and go after you. Consider that the perfect marketing opportunity. But also consider buying some business liability or media perils insurance, just in case. It takes place in a world of my invention, during a medieval themed age.

    I often use the first or last name of some people I know to name characters, never first and last name together though. Most people whose names I use are aware and have given written permission, but I have not asked everyone. In particular there are a couple inept characters that have the same first names as people I know, who have not informed beforehand. These characters have no similarity to the real life individuals, other than the fact that they have the first names of people I have worked with.

    Even if the story is in no way based on their life or personality? I know that anyone can choose to sue me for any reason, but it seems to me that using first names only in a high fantasy novel would keep me fairly safe. You are not making false statements of fact about anyone. You may be making comments about their personalities, but those are creatively expressed opinions and not facts.
