One of my inventions is a business method patent. I don't think that I will be writing much of this one on my own (as I did my last one) because I can not find much information on how to go about it. That said, I would like to be able to write as much as I can in order to keep costs down and increase clarity (I know what it is in much more detail than the attorney can). Therefore I have 2 questions:

1. What are the special considerations that go into writing a business method patent and how does one go about it?

2. Being as business method patents are relativly new and controversial, even in this country, how well do they hold up in international markets? Will other countries issue this type of patents?
