I want to send my story to Hollywood.

Hi I'm Rafsan. I'm 22. I have stories of my own. I have written 4 stories for Hollywood. The problem is I'm from Bangladesh and I don' know secure way to do that. If someone there to help me I would really appreciate that. Once I asked in yahoo and I find out that I could try Literary agent. So, what can I do?

With the internet, you can submit things by email from anywhere in the world.

Rafsan Mahmud

How secure is that ? Can u tell me please.

Henk Brugge

To start with: e-mail the stories to yourself first, for copyright reasons.

Rafsan Mahmud

Thank you Mr. Henk

Orianna Morales

The poorman's copyright is asking for trouble. Depending on where you are, there should be a way to copyright and also send to the WGA E or W.

Chris Hind

adding to Orianna's post - you could also send you stories to the Library of Congress for a fee.

Desi Singh

I agree with Orianna, the poor man's copyright does only one thing, it establishes the date you emailed/mailed it to yourself. Or as it's put, it establishes a date of concept and actualization only and does not establish ownership or who actually wrote the stories. Also the only real copyright IS a copyright with your copyright office in your country or another country, such as the US copyrights office at the Library of Congress. http://www.copyright.gov/ Good luck! :)
