I would like to think I think creatively, and outside the box, and with my writing skills I have an idea that I would like to present to a company. I cannot go into details here (sorry but this is a public place and I need to keep my idea private for now).
Still I was wondering how you officially go about getting a copywrite on a written idea and proposal?
I know anything in "tangible form" is technically automatically copywrited, but because this involves a sale of an idea, I am also required to offically copywrite it. How in the world do I go about that? Does anyone know? Has anyone done this before?
I have been told a few things so far such as sending the material in the mail back to myself un-opened, which does not sound right to me at all? I have also been told a Notary stamp will make it copyrighted. I'm not sure but I do have a best friend that is a lawyer. If need be I can get his help, but thought I would ask here first.
