As with any contract, the document needs to clearyly show the intention of the parties...which can go all the way from a simple one page "publicity" authorization to a more robust twelve page publishing and intellectual property agreement...all of which needs "consideration" and should be prepared by an attorney of your choice. This is not an area in which you will wnat to prepare the agreement yourself.
