How do I connect to the right people to sell my idea?
At my publishers my contract has me making $1.56 per hard copy book and $3.00 electronic books is that normal for first time authors? Second I've heard on internet the average salary for first time author is approx 4,000 in first yr would you happen to have any idea how close to truth that might be? Third any idea how to get illistrations cheaply?
Hi Keith. I started to write you a memo, and got cut off. So I'm trying again. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WERE ME? I am an 87 year young LIfe Coach, and have written over 175 books on Personal Development, Senior Issues, Self-Care books for personal growth, and a series of books, called Magic Morsels. The Magic Morsels are on my facebook page if you ate interested in seeing them. Anyhoo, I am financially challenged with only Social Security payments available to me? Should I stop trying to publish, or could I possibly find someone who is enthralled with my situation. yes? no? What? Thanks for your time. Magic Powers www.discoverwinningways.com p.s. To keep you informed, I am hard-of - hearing and need to communicate over email, not telephone. (oh, some of my books are on Amazon). Have a good day!
How to build a great character
I have paid a reputable company to publish my book. They are editing and doing cover as well as making it available where books are sold. After the writing and research I just wasn’t up to finding a traditional publisher. If it does well is there a chance that someone like Simon and Shuster might pick it up?
