I'm wondering if any of you academics out tehre can provide me with any advice. I've been approached by a publisher who's publishing a series and was wondering if I might wish to contribute - I've yet to talk to him and so I don;t know if we're talking a chapter or something bigger. I'm a freelance consultant - not an academic - so taking time out to work on something for publication would take me away from earning. (I appreciate that academics have little in the way of paid time to write for publication but I guess they have at least some?). So main q - would I be right in guessing that you get paid sweet fa for academic-type publishing (apart from perhaps a few measly royalties post-publication)? I may come back with more qs...am about to speak to him...
