While I am still non-represented by an agent here's a deal I would be willing to agree to:
This applies to a single book, not an entire series. If you wish to make an offer for an entire series, I would be willing to consider the proposal.
$15,000 advance against the first 300,000 copies. The $15,000 would be the only royalties you need pay me for the first 300,000 copies sold. Then starting with sale # 300,001, I would accept a royalty of $0.25/book from then on.
Any further books you wish to procure the rights for would be negotiated on a book by book, or series by series, basis.

Am open to representation. Make an offer.
I'll give 20% of my first advance to anyone who is instrumental in my signing with a publisher. If you know someone in the publishing business, mention my books to them. Should they and I come to an agreement, I will give you 20% of whatever advance they give me. Should that advance be the $15,000 I've stated above, then you will receive $3,000.
I'm doing this because if I had an agent, they would take 20% of my royalty advance anyway. And yes, if the advance should be more than the $15,000, you would still receive 20%, even if it's a million dollars.
This offer will remain in affect until I have either signed with a traditional publiser like Tor or DAW, or have signed with an agent.
It only applies to my initial signing with a publisher.
