Would anyone know who can look at a publishing contract for me please. I am an author and illustrator of a childrens book and would love to hear any advice. Not too sure if i should contact a solicitor just to go over everything or a literary agent but money is a bit tight at the moment. I feel the publishing contract doesnt clearly mention paperback royalties. It mentions me as an author but not as the illustrator..
