I actually thought I should write them again to ask the status when their email came to me on Monday of this week. Except I got no documentation of it, which worried me a little. I thought maybe that meant everything was okay and the copyright went through. That was back in February, and I hadn’t heard anything about it since then. (I want to say that this is because they didn’t explain the problem clearly, but. I thought I had addressed their concerns. I wrote back explaining that I had retained the copyright to those stories after they were published and that there was no issue with anyone else claiming their copyright. They had to do with the ten chapters that had been previously published as stand-alone short stories in various lit mags. Then in February of this year, I received an email from them asking some questions about the novel. I also paid the fee, which at the time was more than I had yet earned on the novel. I had submitted the online form and mailed a physical copy of the novel to the Copyright Office then. I started down that road about a year ago. The contract with my publisher requires me to file for my copyright of One-Match Fire.
