She Writes Press and SparkPress takes a distribution, management, and warehousing fee of 40% of net sales on all print books sold and 30% on all e-books sold. There is also a small fee added on to e-books (7.5% of net sales for all accounts except Apple, and 5.6% of retail for Apple). See the further breakdown of this below. We provide quarterly statements to all of our authors. We also make sure that the accounts are current. We liaison with all major accounts. We believe that authors will benefit from having us managing their POD and e-book accounts because, as any author braving the world of self-publishing alone knows, there are a lot of small details to figure out and stay on top of. One of the most complicated is metadata. In our experience, the big self-publishing companies don’t give authors much hand holding. We strive to function like a traditional press in this sense. Our authors can contact us with problems, and we will keep their accounts running smoothly.
