Average Earnout. The term earnout indicates the total amount of money an author makes on a book, including both the advance and royalties. According to American Writers and Artists Inc., the average earnout for romance novelists ranges between $1,200 to $26,000, depending on the publishing house.
Advances (payments guaranteed for publication) vary at traditional publishing houses. According to 2010 statistics, in the larger New York City publishing houses, you might expect a publisher to pay you anywhere from $2,000 and up for your book or novel. A small book deal may be $5,000 to $20,000. A middling deal may be $20,000 to $60,000. A significant deal may be $60,000 to $150,000. And, of course, advances can go through the roof for a book that every publisher wants. Some smaller independent houses may pay less than $2,000, especially for new writers or for books that may not have a wide appeal.
