Trade Mark your book titles?? For products and book marks too.
I want to know, if I have to trademark the title of my childrens story book? Because I intend to make posters, book marks, coasters, dolls, and car magnets. is it wise to do this? Does this still protect me from the ones who want to benefit from my books by taking this away from me?
