No problem. Most publishers think that lots of followers = lots of copies sold. They end up feeling pretty confident and paying out big advances for 'influencers'.This is all new to me! Thanks for sharing. I have always wondered about fee's for a lot of the IG/huns books.
Hasn’t panned out well for Sarah then....No problem. Most publishers think that lots of followers = lots of copies sold. They end up feeling pretty confident and paying out big advances for 'influencers'.
Do we know what kind of advance people get? Realise that’s a finger in air questionNo problem. Most publishers think that lots of followers = lots of copies sold. They end up feeling pretty confident and paying out big advances for 'influencers'.
My loose understanding is that an advance isn’t very much and I don’t think you’re given it as a lump sum - I remember watching an author talk about it and I think you get a bit initially, a bit once you’ve submitted and then a bit later on? The author I saw said a lot of people think an advance is usually a lot of money but it isn’t.So you don’t have to pay back an advance or anything?
So the figures you for here @LadyPainterDeco, she wouldn’t have got yet because of the advance?

Yes it comes in three instalments I believe, but that varies from case to case. It's not a lot, but again it depends on a person - I imagine Mrs Hinch got 6 numbers figure for advance.My loose understanding is that an advance isn’t very much and I don’t think you’re given it as a lump sum - I remember watching an author talk about it and I think you get a bit initially, a bit once you’ve submitted and then a bit later on?

Anything from 3k to 600k. I'd consider SA to be around 20k mark with her following and popularity of the subject matter. But it's speculation only.So you don’t have to pay back an advance or anything?

They started off together with LD saying he was working with a Sunday times best seller. It how the who debacle was leveraged...To be fair she did once say there is no money to be made from writing a book and that her desire to write this book was not for the money but rather a 'personal achievement'.
Having said that, she and Llewy did press everyone to pre order the book and get her into the ST best seller's etc.
The ST result has likely helped to leverage her credibility and profile, although I'm not sure that will last...
They are wrapped up in materialism and fakery.Her values are all wrapped up in Tesla’s, garden sheds and bios that lie... Here is to the refunds coming in fast and furiously
It’s like they think they’re untouchable...you couldn’t make this shit up.In other news, Jack Monroe's SON'S bank account was closed after she announced publicly in Sarah's comment that she's using it = committing a fraud. You couldn't make it up.
I can’t imagine «a scammer and fraudster who spent stolen money on new rims for my leased Tesla» is going to look good on a resumé.Someone else’s refund gone on purchasing `Crome delete’ for the Tesla.
No shame....no game!

It really is. Also was that competition winner ever announced?It’s like they think they’re untouchable...you couldn’t make this shit up.
It’s better than any soap opera.
They don’t take kindly to new comers xLiterally none. I just like reading this thread. Shoot me!
No, they don't. I've been reading this thread since September as I'm just interested in how the debacle has panned out, but clearly unless you're as involved as they are, you're the enemy.They don’t take kindly to new comers x
Don’t worry. Just ignore it. I got the same treatment not once but twice as they couldn’t remember grilling me the first time & I have been on here since thread one. It’s really only just one person who is overly protective which is odd as we are both people who have never taken Sarah’s course’s. Just along for the read, the ride, offering advice where I can & waiting for the shit show to explode.No, they don't.

Yes I actually remember both times that you were called out and remember thinking you were just speaking with a bit of impartiality, which was refreshing and something few others here can muster.Don’t worry.

They’re alright reallyYes I actually remember both times that you were called out and remember thinking you were just speaking with a bit of impartiality, which was refreshing and something few others here can muster.
Anyway, I shall slink off into the shadows again, before I'm strip searched and cattle prodded out...
