I'm in the early stages of discussing a technical book idea with a publisher. I've had a chapter published by them before, and now the commissioning editor approached me and asked would I be interested in authoring a full book, about 40,000 words (expanding on the subject of my original paper)
So does anyone have any experience of dealing with publishers? - How does the process work, what contracts do you need to sign, should I get a solicitor, when does the money start rolling in? that kind of thing. :) |
