ROYALTIES
Ibis Books operates under a profit-sharing model. There is no advance offered.
Therefore there will be no need for a book to “earn out” before the Author becomes entitled to royalties.
Ibis Books and the Author will split profits 50-50 from the first copy sold.
Should Ibis Books decide to publish the Manuscript, the Author will receive a contract outlining the entire publishing agreement.
