Does your contract require your "editor" (I think you mean "publisher") to provide you with a monthly account of sales, on which to base your royalty payments? Do you actually receive these payments?



From publishers I get a yearly account of sales, and yes, I get paid accordingly. But here there would be no publisher involved, hence my question on how to manage the situation best.


What percentage (or flat fee per sale) do you get? And how do you verify their sales figures? Any bestsellers with well-known numbers that have made you confident that they have been honest with you?
