Writers, are you stymied by Schedule C and self-employment tax? Not sure you're getting all the deductions you deserve, or uncertain precisely what the IRS allows? This book is a compilation of a 15-lecture course and additional information taught each spring. It is not intended to be an extensive or exhaustive volume on small-business taxes or general tax concepts. It's a concise source of the most useful information for writers preparing their own tax returns. This book is not filled with lots of long-winded stories about clients to fill word count and add pages. You don't have time to read all that. You just want to know how to fill in your forms and what you can and can't deduct. I will answer those questions, as well as provide additional useful and necessary information for tax planning and recordkeeping. Written by both a writer and a tax preparer, we offer expert knowledge that usually costs hundreds of dollars in tax-prep fees. Chapters include: Hobby vs. Business Legal Issues What Expenses are Deductible? Schedule C Walkthrough Home-office Deduction Self-employment Tax Quarterly Estimated Tax Self-Published Authors Unpublished Authors FAQ\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eN.S.
