What are the legalities of writing a book using something I wrote here?
Hello there Catfish33,
I just so happen to have thought and considered using my writings on HubPages for one of my books. The legalities to using your own writing that you have published here on HubPages cover your writings. HubPages does not stand for Plagarism and they have certain measures in place to watch for this. As a writer getting published as I type this message to you: Your writing is your writing. Deciding to publish your articles is an easy way to benefit from being an accomplished writer on the Horizon.
Best Regards,
Sapphireid
The copyright remains with you whenever you post something on HP, so you can use your articles for your own books. The only thing HP objects to is posting the same content to two different websites, since that has some negative effects in search engines.

Last year I wrote a children's book aimed at the Harry Potter age group. I am thinking about posting it on here, but it is 17000 words. Should I post each chapter as a separate Hub or would I be better off going for the entire thing on one Hub?
