A new feature bringing you highlights from the mediabistro.com discussion boards. This week:

writesonwater: "What do you do when someone (say, 1 of 25 or 50 subjects interviewed) wants to read the part that applies to them before a BOOK is published? "

deadline: "I am writing my first book and offered to let my sources read chapters about them before it goes to print. The subject is sensitive, and they all do want the book written. However, it is their lives I am stepping into."

Check out (or add to) the conversation here: When subjects want to read yr book first
