In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Melanie Herschorn discuss: Book writing for lawyers Challenges in book publishing Books as marketing tools Role of technology and AI in publishing Key Takeaways: Lawyers can streamline book creation by repurposing existing content instead of writing new material daily. Carefully vet publishers to avoid rights loss or financial exploitation by selecting those with transparency and industry expertise.
