Re: How do I sell my Copyright?

A copyright is intellectual property and can be sold like any other property right. Often this is done by an assignment and shown on a piece of paper much like conveying real property. One can also reserve a right in his work and make a limited assignment to another person to use the copyrighted work. If the work is registered with the government, there might be some paperwork to complete there.
