How to handle book design plagiarism? That's among the questions answered in this month's AskALLi Member Q&A with Michael La Ronn and Sacha Black. Other questions include: What services are authors using to setup direct sales on their websites? What is the best way to get my indie book into bookstores? What is the best way to negotiate the rights to an audiobook to a publisher? If I am rebranding my series, should I release the new covers at the same time or can I stagger the new covers? How can I avoid scams? And more!
