answers1:Authors typically get 6% of the profits on paperback, and 10%
on hardback. Of that, 15% goes to the author's agent. That equates to
a dollar or two of the average book price.Authors get paid these
royalties in lump sums, either annually or bi-annually, depending on
the publisher.

authors salary?
answers1:If an author hits it big, there's big money. But how many
great authors are out there?My parents were authors. My mom once
received her royalties in postage stamps (less than a dollar's
worth).Luckily, my dad came up with a type of book no one in education
had come out with yet. After that, they got great royalty checks. If
you want a salary for writing, go into journalism....Show more
answers2:I agree with Obi_San - especially about the last part. Being
an author is not about making money, but about entertaining people
with your books. You shouldn't just want to be an author to become
wealthy because it's not as easy to make money when your career choice
is an author.Like Obi_San said - it really depends on how many people
buy your book. So if your book is a bestseller - you get a lot of
money, but if it's not, then, well, I suggest a side job. =)Good luck
and please don't write a book just for money. That's not what it's
about and I guarantee that your books won't sell if you just write for
money....Show more
answers3:There is no "salary" for authors because they are not
employed by anyone. Books are sold for royalties. Authors may
recieve an advance against those royalties, however the average author
doesn't make more than a few thousand dollars on that (and it could be
only a few hundred, or even none, depending on what press makes an
offer and how marketable they think your book is). Most authors have
to work a day job. Only a tiny percentange of published authors have
a large enough body of royalty-making work out there to be able to
live on it.Hopefully you are not asking because this is a career path
that you want to pursue to become wealthy. For every Philip Roth out
there, thousands of talented and struggling authors working are
another job and writing. Write because you have a passion for it, not
for the money!...Show more
answers4:Might as well close this question and choose Elissa's answer
as the best one. Not going to get any better than that!
answers5:Salary? Ha ha! Good one.There's no such thing. Authors get
advances against sales and royalties. And there's no set average
because it varies from author to author, depending upon so many
factors like how prolific they are, whether their books become
bestsellers, if they have foreign printings of their books,
etc.Writing is one of the few professions that has no set salary and
pay is quite often far lower per hours worked....Show more

Book Club: I NEED BOOK IDEAS!?
answers1:I just started a book club too! We are currently reading The
Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. It's not a historical fiction but it
is fiction, and it is a great book!P.S. Our avatars look the same,
lol!
answers2:Milkweed by Jerry SpinelliSomeone named Eva (author i dont
really know)Black Duck oh.and the percy jackson series. still a good
read.right on percabeth! :D...Show more
answers3:Across Five Aprils - Irene HuntAll Quiet on the Western Front
- Erich Maria RemarqueJohnny Tremain - Esther ForbesMy Brother Sam Is
Dead - Christopher Collier and James Lincoln CollierThe Red Badge of
Courage - Stephen CraneI would suggest "Gone With The Wind" and "War
and Peace", except those are over 1000 pages long....Show more
answers4:"Memoirs of a Geisha" by Arthur Brown (I think that's the
name of the author). ;)
answers5:The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan. It is one of my favorites. It
is the story of a group of Chinese and Chinese American women and
their relationship to each other and their culture and heritage.
There are times when you laugh out loud and there are times when you
are sobbing in agony. This novel is a truly cathartic. It is a
pretty quick read too, but there is also lots to discuss and at least
one book club version with Q&A with the author and discussion
questions. There are also a couple of websites with discussion
questions....Show more
answers6:Code Orange by Caroline B. Cooney, anything that Ellen
Hopkins has written, and a good idea is to read Pride and Prejudice
and Sense and Sensibility and then read Pride and Prejudice and
Zombies and then Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters.
answers7:I've just got done reading this great fantasy fiction series
that teaches you a lot about the greek gods. I know that it sounds
corny but they are great books. Good luck with the book club. Percy
Jackson and the Olympians. The first is The Lightning Thief, The
second is The Sea of Monsters, The Third is The Titans Curse, The
forth is The Battle of the Labyrinth, And the fifth is the Last
Olympian. Others: The Demigod Files, Demigods and Monsters. There is a

COMMENT FAIRE FONDRE LE NUTELLA
COMMENT FAIRE FONDRE LE NUTELLA
Si vous souhaitez utiliser la tartinade Nutella dans une recette ou sur votre pain grillé du matin, vous devrez la ramollir pour la sortir du pot. Vous pouvez faire fondre rapidement le Nutella en le ramassant dans un bol et en le passant doucement au micro-ondes. Ou si vous voulez faire fondre une plus grande quantité, mettez simplement le pot de Nutella dans un bol d'eau chaude. Si vous n'avez besoin que d'un peu de Nutella pour le tartiner, chauffez un couteau ou une cuillère en métal et utilisez-le pour gratter le Nutella ramolli.
Remuez le Nutella et faites-le cuire au micro-ondes pendant 15 secondes de plus. Ouvrir le micro-ondes et remuer le Nutella avec une cuillère en métal ou en bois. Cela l'aidera à fondre uniformément. Cuire le Nutella au micro-ondes pendant 15 secondes de plus.
Chauffer un couteau ou une cuillère en métal sous l'eau chaude. Si vous n'avez besoin que d'un peu de Nutella pour fondre ou ramollir, sortez un couteau ou une cuillère à beurre. Faire couler de l'eau chaude dans une tasse et mettre la cuillère ou le couteau dans l'eau chaude. Laisser reposer dans la tasse pendant environ une minute. Cela va réchauffer le métal.
Verser le Nutella dans un bol. Déterminez la quantité de Nutella que vous devez faire fondre, surtout si vous l'utilisez pour une recette. Verser le Nutella dur dans un bol ou un plat allant au micro-ondes.
Verser l'eau bouillante dans un bol. Sortez un bol à l'épreuve de la chaleur et versez soigneusement assez d'eau chaude pour remplir le bol à moitié. Évitez de verser trop d'eau, sinon elle débordera sur le côté du bol lorsque vous ajouterez le Nutella.
Étendre le Nutella jusqu'à ce qu'il fonde. Retirer le couteau ou la cuillère à beurre de l'eau chaude, du café ou du thé. Essuyez-le rapidement sur un chiffon propre pour ne pas mettre d'eau dans votre pot de Nutella. Grattez autant de Nutella que vous en avez besoin et étalez-le sur tout ce que vous utilisez. Continuez à étaler le Nutella jusqu'à ce que la chaleur du couteau ou de la cuillère le fasse fondre.
Cuire le Nutella au micro-ondes pendant 15 secondes. Réglez votre four à micro-ondes sur le réglage moyen-bas. Placer le bol découvert de Nutella au micro-ondes et chauffer pendant 15 secondes.
Ramollir et remuer le Nutella. Laisser reposer le Nutella dans l'eau chaude pendant environ 5 minutes. Remuez le Nutella avec une cuillère en bois ou en métal et retirez le pot de l'eau s'il est fondu. Sinon, laissez le Nutella reposer dans l'eau chaude jusqu'à ce qu'il soit fondu.
Envisagez de chauffer le couteau ou la cuillère dans votre café ou votre thé. Certaines personnes trouvent qu'elles prennent toujours du café ou du thé avec leur toast et leur Nutella. Pour un raccourci, vous pouvez simplement mettre votre cuillère ou votre couteau à beurre directement dans votre café ou votre thé. Laissez-le là-dedans pendant une minute pour réchauffer le métal.
Remuez le Nutella et vérifiez la consistance. Remuez de nouveau le Nutella pour voir s'il a fondu ou s'il y a encore des touffes épaisses. Continuer de cuire le Nutella au micro-ondes toutes les 15 secondes jusqu'à ce qu'il soit fondu.
Porter à ébullition une casserole d'eau. Remplissez une bouilloire et mettez-la à feu vif. L'eau devrait bouillir en quelques minutes.
Placer le pot de Nutella dans l'eau chaude. Retirer le couvercle du bocal de Nutella et mettre le bocal dans le bol d'eau chaude. Veillez à ce que l'eau ne puisse pas pénétrer dans le pot.
books books books :) suggestions? ^_^?
answers1:It looks like you've got some suggestions about the supernat.
Here is one for fantasy. Check out the books by Trudi Canavan and
Australian writer who writes about magicians. Her main characters are
girls and young women who start from low beginnings but rise to power
using magic. A good start would be the Black Magician series.
answers2:Good vampire book would be Sunshine by Robin McKinley. It
doesn't sound like a vampire book, and the new cover doesn't look like
a vampire book, but it is. More traditional vampires, too, than these
new semi-blood-suckers.Also Tantalize by Cynthia Smith. Got vampires
AND weres. A good werewolf book would be Blood and Chocolate by
Annette Curtis Klaus.Good supernatural series would be the Kate
Daniels series by Ilona Andrews, starts with Magic Bites (though I
personally hate the newest book, but most people don't share my point
of view) and the Dresden files by Jim Butcher, starts with Storm
Front.Hope you find something you like....Show more
answers3:Give Evernight a try by Claudia Gray. I recommend it a lot
here and it's surprisingly good for a YA vampire novel. For some
reason they're not affected by sun, maybe because Bianca's only half
vampire though. But I'm on the third book now and gobbling it up.
She falls in love with a vampire hunter and there are ghosts too. I
loved Darkest Powers as well and just reserved the 3rd book from the
library, woot!If you're up for a classic, try Dracula by Bram Stoker.
It's a little slow in parts, but well worth it. I'd also recommend
'salem's Lot by Stephen King - but it's really, really creepy. Of
course, it's King!Hope that gives you some ideas, all I can think of
right now. Happy reading!...Show more

answers5:Try, The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare.The first book
is called City Of Bones. It has Shadowhunters (demon killers),
vampires (real vampires that burn in the sun), werewolves, warlocks,
angels, demons and faeries. I really loved it, and I'm sure you'd love
it too. It's based on a girl named Clary, who with her friend Simon
one night, saw three teenagers kill someone. The next day, when her
apartment is trashed and mum disappears, she has to take shelter with
them. She learns of Shadowhunters, people who protect the world from
demons. They have three mortal instruments; the Mortal Cup (creates
Shadowhunters.), the Soul-Sword (tells if a Shadowhunter is lying) and
the mirror (unknown what it is really.) The Cup is now missing, and
without it, Shadowhunters will be killed off. Meanwhile, Clary finds
out her mother's lies, and falls for the wrong person. Hope I helped
:)...Show more
answers6:Read vampire academy (series) they are AMAZING!!! Or
evernight. That's a good vampire book too :) but I loved vampire
academy haha

THANKS! Everyone one of them has been a best answer to me!

Twilight ^_^ If anyone has even more I appreciate the suggestions.

any good books for me too read?
answers1:defiantly His dark Materials (I'm the third person to say
that one)If you like long books try Alison Croggon's Books of
PellinorAnything by Garth Nix is good especially Shade's children
though it isn't majorly long.If your into classics try Pride and
Prejudice.Trudi Canarvan is good, but don't try her age of the five
until your a little older.Of course Jacqueline wilson but i can
understand that if you like long books they might not interest
you.Series of Unfortunate events, might seem a bit babyish but theres
13 of them and you get a new meaning to them every time....Show more

answers14:Will you critique my "so far" Preface?PrefaceDay 1, week 2.
Time passes even when it feels impossible. Breathing comes and goes
even though it seems like I'm not breathing at all. When he died my
world came crashing down. Living in a world with out him was like not
living at all. When the man in the uniform came to my door I already
knew what he was about to tell me. At first as he walked up to my door
I rejected the theory that it was what I thought. But when he told me
I crashed down to the ground. And from that day on I didn't breathe,
or at least it didn't feel like it. I didn't live. I was just there.
An empty space that filled part of a room. They said I was catatonic
but how can you be anything without a soul? My soul was gone. My soul
died when he did. People always said death was hard to deal with, but
what happens when you don't get to say goodbye? When you don't see
them in months? Don't hear from them in weeks? When you don't ever get
to see their smiling face smiling at you ever again? Nothing happens.
Life just stays still. You play in your mind what could have been.
What would have been. But nothing changes. Days go by, soon followed
by weeks. Weeks and weeks of wasted time. Time that was precious, time
that could have been something else besides waste. You try and hide
the theory that your life is gone, your excuse for existence is gone!
But somehow the bills get paid, and you keep on living....Show more

when i go to write it. I can only write about 5 pages then it's like

answers21:This happened to me once before. There's nothing wrong with
you, it is normal! What i think the problem was is that you have the
way YOU want the story to go in your head, or when you verbally are
telling the story, however; when you was to actually SEE the story,
like screenplay it just isn't how you had imagined it when you created
the story, like the characters don't look the same or act how YOU want
them to....Show more

answers31:Nothing's wrong with you. You just need to work on your
writings skills. No writer ever writes a best seller in one sitting.
There is constant drafting and rewriting and editing. If you want to
be a writer, you really need to practice those skills. Even if it's
not the same as you expected. It'll get better with practice and read
the books of other famous writers too to work on your skills and learn
from themIf you're good a verbal story telling, consider getting a
tape recorder and pull it out when you tell stories or by yourself if
you'd like and later you go back, listen to it and write it
down....Show more

understand that if you like long books they might not interest

you could ask someone to write what you say while you say it, then
you'll see how good your stories are :)
answers7:nothings wrong with you. don't try to follow someone Else's
writing style. when you write do you compare your writing to something

answers14:Will you critique my "so far" Preface?PrefaceDay 1, week 2.
Time passes even when it feels impossible. Breathing comes and goes
even though it seems like I'm not breathing at all. When he died my
world came crashing down. Living in a world with out him was like not
living at all. When the man in the uniform came to my door I already
