If I print a novel using Blurb and BookWright, can they later print, redistribute or sell my book without my permission? Do they own any rights to my book?

You still own rights, and they do print on demand. When you say later, I am not sure if you mean when ordered or different. However, they are a rip off and treat sellers/authors like you are stupid. I have for 3 years been trying to publish with them and never got answers to my questions. I had to get an employee to contact them who had patients with their stupidity. I asked where else do they send it besides Amazon. Their response "Amazon and so forth." No Kidding! As far as ripoff, in order to make $1 in royalty for each book, the price has to be $61! My books are not textbooks, which it would be a great deal on. They are everyday self-help or educational and only 100+ pages. The same thing on Amazon, if I got there directly, is less than $10. On Amazon $10 is considered a high price for it. STAY AWAY! With over pricing and rude people, you will not make money even if you do get it published.
