Re: LOL
I'm betting the "contact" was NYT's reply to a request to buy advertising space. :b
Anyway...do we have this logospeak logged yet?

We have posted this email from Publish
America's helpful staff member, Jessica, in
case any writers here are wondering the
same thing we were...
"The sales report we send out is sent with the
royalty check. As per paragraph 12 of your
contract, royalty checks and statements are
issued in February and August. The February
statement will reflect sales from August
1 to January 31, and the August statement
reflects sales from February 1 to July 31.
You will not receive royalties on any
purchases that you make yourself, as
stated in paragraph 5 of your contract, unless
we are running a special that explicitly states
otherwise.
Also, the statements will only show sales from
that royalty period for which we have been
paid. Some retailers and distributors have a
grace period of 30, 60, or even 90 days. Any
sales not shown on one statement
should certainly be included on the next.
Royalties are calculated from the sold price of
the book, or the price that PublishAmerica is
paid. For example, if a customer buys your
book from our website for $16.95, you will
receive your percentage of that amount. If
Amazon purchases that same book from us at
a 40% discount off of the retail price ($11.97)
and sells that book for $19.95, you will receive
royalties from $11.97."
We wish to publicly thank Jessica, for
continually being such a great help!
