Avoiding trouble in a collaboration

"When a writing collaboration works," attorney Helen Sedwick writes, "partners inspire and complement one other. The creative process is less lonely. But when collaborations fail, the drama may be as ugly as a Hollywood divorce." Sedwick offers a series of tips for keeping collaborations on track, including written agreements on goals, ownership, income, expenses, and credit, as well as more generic guidance such as "nip resentment in the bud" and "keep communicating."
