I hope all writing organizations and authors join with Authors Guild in fighting this egregious rights grab.

It is an attempt at rights grab for a format that hasn’t been formulated yet, to a large extent.

Writer organisations, such as yours, should get involved now and speak for writers, and not leave it to close room sessions between agents and publishers.
