This has very little to do with computers, but it is related.
If I were to create something, say a story or an illustration, how would I copyright it? What are the rights given to you?
Could I just place a name and the Copyright symbol or do I have to be a known company and/or brand?
What text would I have to put down? What if someone were to copy what I created and use it or claim that the person in question has created it?
