As a former professional photographer, I agree that the collection letter should be viewed as work product and should only be given away at no charge by the original writer. A lot of times, my customers believed that once they purchased "X" number or size photographs they were entitled to make copies (without compensation to me of course). They only had rights to the one copy they paid for. I could give them extra prints, but that was my call to make.
In general, because I don't know anyone here, I don't think the ones that asked for a copy were intentionally trying to 'get something for nothing.' You hear a good idea and its human nature to ask how to make it work for you. If the author is offering it for sale or is giving it away the same process would have to be followed. You would have to ask for a copy of it from someone.
I viewed the original "thanks" message as someone giving credit to her for both the letter and her help.
By the way, can someone please post contact information -- that is if she would be OK with getting email requests or contacts.
Thanks |
