Royalty structure

Transparent, simple, fair

Authors retain copyright in their work. We negotiate publishing rights on a case-by-case basis. Royalty rates are typically 10–15% of net receipts on print, paid quarterly. We never take all rights and we never lock authors into restrictive long-term agreements. Specific terms are agreed at contract stage and explained in plain language.

Where contributions appear in a curated anthology (such as Our Stories, Our World), each contributing author receives author credit, complimentary copies, and an invitation to the launch event.
