I don't mean to be the bad guy, but I thought this was important for you to know. Just as an offside note, I'm pretty sure you need rights and permission from the author and publishing company before you try to make a book related to any copyrighted and/or company-published book. You're allowed to write fan-made material, but rights must be listed ("The Sight is copyright to David Clement-Davies and Firebird Publishing and this writing is purely fan-made and is in no way associated with Firebird or its writers.") and you can't under any circumstances publish it without Firebird's or Clement-Davies' permission; that's illegal.
The reason why I didn't PM you this is because I think it's important for everyone to be able to read it and understand copyright infringement.

It's not copywritten to a particular company- the works are just copywritten to the website -Freewebs automatically copywrites work/ words on the page- (as in nobody can steal the words). David Clement-Davies is given listed rights and credit. Thanks! (I will post the suggestion you gave me i.e.[The Sight is copyright to David Clement-Davies and Firebird Publishing and this writing is purely fan-made and is in no way associated with Firebird or its writers.])

I do believe that if this is a "fanfiction novel" and it isn't at all beneficial financially it should be fine... I could be wrong, but you really only break the copyright laws if you claim the idea as your own and also if you sell it to make money.

Ya, this is just a fan-made book. If I ever end up finishing it and wanting to try to make profit for it, I would definitely consult with DCD first. I respect him- he's my favorite author, and I would never plagiarize or steal any of his ideas and try to make money off of it. This book IS fan-made, and it is copywritten to freewebs- this only means you can't steal my words- it doesn't mean it is published or anything. Enjoy!
