Depending on where you live, you own the copyright to a written work the instant you write it. (See Berne Convention.)

You don't have to apply for copyright. You already own the copyright. There may be legal benefits to registering your copyright with your government. In the US, for example, when you sue someone for copyright infringement, you may gain additional legal remedies if you registered your copyright before you brought the suit.

If you live in the US, get a copy of The Copyright Handbook by NOLO Press.
