It’s love month around here at Xulon Press and how could we not participate? We love our red Valentine’s Day decorations and conversation hearts, the baked goods and bouquets of flowers, just like the rest of you. Although, I do have to admit, we’ve added a bit of our own spin to cupid’s holiday. You see, in our opinion, the month of love should focus on the heart as a whole: the physical, emotional and the spiritual. When each aspect of the heart is healthy—we’re healthy.
Want a sneak preview of our blog posts for the month?

We have also put together a special Ask the Editor post on copyright laws for song lyrics. We know just how difficult and confusing the laws of replication can be for song lyrics, so we thought we’d lend a hand and hash out the details for you.
