Clowniac If you are talking about the Fixed-Rate contract, fair enough then. And I believe you are talking about this particular contract. Though I won't say anything bad about it, this very contract is not to my liking. Anyone offered this, should read properly before signing it. The advantages and the disadvantges. Anyone ok with this? By all means, go ahead.
P.S: I know few who are quite happy with this contract
But if it's the Royalty contract, I will have to disagree, totally. Having read the terms of this particular contract, I can only say that it's a good one. Really good one.
Apart from the author keeping all the rights, the one I like most about it is that, they source for the work's adaptations for the author. Though, they receive higher percentage. I'm cool with this. Personally, I love this very contract.
Chryiss I totally agreed with you. It's very sad to see some work getting the Royalty contract over the really great ones. So sad. As for me, it's the Royalty contract or nothing.
