So I just signed a publishing contract for my first book. Should be getting my royalty advance check in a couple of days, and the book will be on the shelves by late summer. Yay for me! /random bragging |

YES RLY. Actually, it's more like a booklet. Advice for junior associates in law firms. Not so excitinc unless you happen to be, well, a junior associate in a law firm (or a law student). Not exactly a nailbiter. :) |

I was going to say I'd buy it, but seeing as how im goin to be goin to school for heavy equipment maintence I dont think it will help me much in my career choice, and plus I cant read so theres no point in it really. But for more important matters..............how much money you getting and who published it? |

Congratulations. I know I've been collecting notes and writing small pieces to my book for a few years now. It's much more difficult then ever expected.

Ah, unfortunately nobody is getting rich off this thing. I figure I sell at most a thousand copies a year, and I probably make a dollar per sale (depends on final retail price). So, no early retirement for me yet. There is some sex in the book, but only ...ual harassment, unfortunately. Next up, a self-help book. That, and my epic fantasy novel that I've been working on for the last ten years. |

You mean trolls can't get good schooling and become lawyers. That's a little racist don't you think?
