Hi all,
All of my screenplays so far have been short--under 15 pages--and probably aren't even formatted properly, since I've been writing them mainly for practice or for films I'm making myself. Not that that's relevant to my question.
Anyway, my question: Is it worth paying $30 to copyright a short script? Yes, I love my ideas and yes, I respect my work, but is theft of short scripts a major concern for screenwriters?
