I would be really grateful for some advice regarding an offer I have received to publish my book. The publisher has offered to pay half the costs with 50% of the sales. Is this the norm now? Not sure which route to take here: whether to send my script off to literary agents for further appraisal or go with the offer.
Areas of interest
Did you get any income from publishing your first book? If so, you can confidently use that money to publish your second and third books. However, if you don't get much after your first book publication, you can think about getting help from publishers, sponsors or other poets and authors.
Hi Janie,
Just echoing what Tony and Janet have said. It is important that you do due diligence and research this publisher. Have they offered you a contract that outlines all of this? If not, it's important you ask for one before committing to anything.
You. I gut also check with someone else who has been published by them, someone you find on your own. Trying googling the company with the word reviews attached.
