It seldom makes sense for a writer to form a corporation or LLC, Helen Sedwick writes. Besides the cost — in California, $800 per year — using a corporation or LCC probably doesn't provide writers much protection from liability: "A writer’s greatest legal risks are defamation, privacy, and infringement claims, all of which result from the writer’s own actions. Even if a writer had a corporation, someone would sue both the corporation and the writer for these claims."
