Ok .. I am not even done reading this yet. I feel like a sponge.. and you make me laugh. "without mentioning that Dominar Rygel XVI actually wrote it as non-fiction.." lol. This is really great info... I'm going to read the rest.
I'm surprised the author makes more than the publisher. I know writing a book takes a LOT of work, but without the publisher and the work of all of those people you mentioned... I thought it would be more like a 50-50 thing. or 60-40. how does the publisher stay ahead... and pay the editors...?
~from a young whippersnapper hahah.
I realize I know nothing about the publishing world. Thank you so much for sharing, and if I ever do get published I won't feel completely lost, just lost.
