Got a contract offer from a digital publisher. Some of the terms make me VERY anxious. Some of them I'm not crazy about, but I think I can work around/live with. But I won't go into those. I'll start with the basics: what is the average royalty rate for an ebook publisher? Please specify if you're talking net profits or not. In other words, if the author gets 50% of net profits on a $9.99 book, Amazon gets 30% ($3.00), Publisher gets 35% ($3.50), author gets 35% ($3.50).
