I haven't gone as far as naming a 'literary executor' but I'm with you - if my heirs can figure out a way to get something fresh from my work, I say go for it!Susan C Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18225627756540127032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-77945016582959500272017-09-06T08:14:05.467-07:002017-09-06T08:14:05.467-07:00A very sensible attitude toward your literary lega...A very sensible attitude toward your literary legacy.
