I've been asked by a large publisher to author a book for them and I am inclined to pursue the opportunity.This is my first time dealing with a publisher... does anyone have tips or suggestions regarding important issues, questions to ask etc.?Any advice would be greatly appreciated!Most larger publishers have a standard author contract and don't vary it much, especially for a first time author. I'd check out their list and see what the books look like as to design and print quality. You might also contact some of their authors to see how they are treated. Writing books is harder that it appears and likely will not generate a huge return but it can be great fun and challenging and should add to your reputation when you are doing workshops, etc.A book that can be updated periodically (ie second, third etc. editions) is probably better than a one shot project.Good luckPeter Randall
