While previously these model contracts were reserved for members of the Authors Guild, this month the Authors Guild has made two model contracts with commentary available to the general public - one, to help guide writers when negotiating with trade publishers, and the other a model translation contract to help translators hired to translate a work in another language into English.

These are great resources for authors and translators!
Illustrate, Translate, and Write On,

P.S. My thanks to editor and coach Emma Dryden for posting about this on LinkedIn, which is where I learned about it.
