    Hi all, I am just wanting some advice with putting together an ebook ive been working on for some time (almost 8 months) and am now looking to go the next step once ive complied the numerous files onto a pdf file. I want to get this done now so my book is out there as i feel like my motivation has died down so getting it out there now would probably be better rather than delaying it further because i cant come up with some more sub-ideas.

    Few questions i need to ask:

    1) I have put the C Logo and my name on earlier works all the way to files i have now, should i get Copyright officially for my ebook? Where do i find it? I live in the UK so i dont know if there is universal copyright etc.

    2) I would like to go back to this Ebook and add more to it later, since i have worked on it a long time already i want to get it out there now before i spend too much time on it. This ebook is a self guide type so it is not 'half finished' or anything. However if i sell and copyright it can i add more chapters to it later like a second edition?

    3) I would like to know if there is anything else i need in my ebook besides the copyright logo etc. Should i have other legal texts in my book?

    Thanks if you can spare me some well needed help/advice :) I just need some direction with this.

    Jay
