FULL PUBLISHING DEAL
In a Full Publishing Deal, the Publisher owns your copyright for a negotiated
Term (length of time) and owns half of the royalties from licenses and revenue. This
contract will most likely state that the Writer is exclusive, and anything that the writer
creates during the term, within the scope of the art that the Publishing company solicits
"work" for, the Publisher must be granted first refusal. The Publisher actively
(we hope) pursues placement of the song (called "licenses") and will negotiate
and execute the appropriate contracts in each case.
