Rights and permissions

Everything below is meant to make permission easy to get, not hard.

Who owns what

I own the essays, the photographs and the audio. The Long Middle is published by Sceptre, so print and translation rights for that book are handled by my agent. The Slow Craft Fieldbook is mine and is free to redistribute unchanged.

Reprinting an essay

Publications may reprint one essay a year at no cost, with a credit and a link to the original. Anthologies and paid syndication go through my agent. I say yes more often than not.

Photographs

Editorial use of a photograph, with credit, is usually fine and free for anything non-commercial. Commercial licensing goes through my agent. Please do not crop a photograph so that a person in it becomes unidentifiable to themselves.

Translation

The Fieldbook has been translated into three languages by volunteers, and I would like more. Write to me first so two people do not start the same language in the same month.

Who to ask

Frances Udo at Udo & Ward handles rights. Start with the contact page and I will pass it on.
