I have written several guest blog posts for a website with a large readership. I didn't ask for payment because the site is set up primarily as a public service in the special interest area.

Now I have written a guest blog post that I would like to re-use (possibly in a slightly different form) in a future book. I have asked the site manager about this and find her response confusing. First, she pointed me to the site's reprint policy, which says

> "articles cannot be reproduced for resale."

She also said, "Your writing will always be your own intellectual property - even if it’s published on our site."

Should I request an exception to this in writing before my article is published on their site?
