The sale basically boils down to this:<br \/><br \/>-By selling them the rights, I'm agreeing to send them the original .docx file and take it down from any website I've posted it to, as well as guaranteeing that I won't post it anywhere else again<br \/>-I can keep using the characters in the cartoons I'm working on, as well as any other stories I wish to publish in the future<br \/>-They're only offering to buy the &quot;words on the page&quot; and what I chose to do with the characters, and all potential copyright repercussions of the sale will fall on them and not me.<br \/><br \/>That last point confuses me because if I'm selling him the rights to the premise, and the cartoons are based on the same premise, aren't I technically also selling the cartoons to him?<br \/><br \/>I'm not selling ANYTHING, this offer just baffles me to no end."}
