Hello forum members thank you for having me,I'm just enquiring I have been unemployed for a while now,due to unforeseen circumstances, however I've been keeping myself busy through art and design and writing, trying to put together content that appeals to young and old,,after several months I organised all my work,layed it out in the form of a children's book,I decided to submit my manuscript to a reputable book publisher,and after the boards reviewed it,wrote me a glowing letter outlining how much they loved my work,and offered me a publishing deal.However I don't know how to feel about this, because it's all new to me, being a first time author,,the company in question are looking for one third,of the cost of publishing,but the royalties in question are good.My question being I do not have the money their looking for,so if you were in my shoes,what advice could you give,do I have options?How should I be feeling about getting a deal? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Thank you
