Howry and the publishing professionals included here emphasize that just as a writer's work is scrutinized, so should the writer examine the work of the agent and the editor, the value of the contract, and the promotion plan.

Williams explains how the business of publishing works and provides a crash course in the economics of publishing and what it means to the aspiring poet seeking publication.

Rule 6(e)2 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure requires that grand jury testimony be kept secret, but the prosecutors leaked contents of that testimony to the press, published it as an annex to the Starr Report, and broadcast Clinton's televised grand jury testimony to the world.
Starr discussed and refused to rule out a later criminal prosecution during his impeachment testimony, and his office then declared itself considering three courses: indicting and trying Clinton while he is president, doing both after the end of his term, or secretly indicting him while president and trying him afterward.
