@grammargirl Are co-authors eligible? And also, I loved Grammar Girl, and I read as many books as I could before I started my career in tech writing. I still have a couple Grammar Girl books in my reference library at home.

@0f4d0335 Hey, thanks!

I believe you're eligible if you're named on the copyright filing, but you should read the Authors Guild post to be sure.

Also, I think you can search your name at the settlement site to see if you come up.
