More From Harry Whittington

Again from The Mystery Writer's Handbook:

"The lowest advance I've been paid for a paperback original was $625. May writers regularly accept $500 less the agent's 10 per cent. In three years, beginning in November 1950, I sold and had published thirty-two novels. Counting foreign reprint rights, I've earned at least $1000 on each one and several times that on a few."
