The dirty truth about royalties. The author only gets a small portion of the pie. I just got a statement from one of my publishers on one of the books they brought out recently. These are good people who do really good work so this isn’t a knock on them. It’s just the reality of publishing. I was pleased to learn I’d earned just shy of $9,000 on the book for this payment period which represents about 6 months.
