Non-celebrity - not a famous singer, comedian, actress, politician, corporate head, athlete none of those
just a lil country unknown educator and first time writer
Anybody have an idea what first time unknowns are generally offered by publishers fo rmemoirs?
Is there a standard? Does it/can it vary greatly?
$25,000? $50,000? $75,000?
Can a first time writer get a $100,000 deal.
I mean a third goes to taxes, 15 - 20% to agent so that would only leave me with $50,000 or less anyway.
Shoot, I need more than $100,000. Is that ridiculous or unrealistic?
