I would also like to add, if you write a set of "books" that have to be read together, do not ever say they can stand alone. That will get you a reputation in a hurry.
Also if you use cliffhangers to attempt to get your readers to buy the next book, DO NOT use the same one three books running.
Now my best advice is write the best book you can. At the very least get it proofread.
And most importantly, remember this is a business so attempt to act like a professional online.
If you have legal or tax questions, always consult a professional.
I can tell you not to use a trademarked item in your title. Those are protected by laws. I can't tell you if using the"Grinch" as a name in a book is legal or not. I would recommend you don't to be on the safe side.
On taxes, save at least 30%. Keep good records. Also, find a professional to help and I mean an actual tax office not the one set up in Walmart. Those are set up for easy forms.
Note: "I read it on an internet forum" is never a good legal defense. Neither is "but cin did it". That last one didn't work for my brother or sister either.
