FOR A REAL ROMANTASY NOVEL
A 75,000-word romantasy: 75,000 × $0.06 = $4,500
That includes:
✓ Translation by one of us ✓ Full proofread by the other ✓ Series glossary for names, places, and worldbuilding ✓ Free revisions until you're happy ✓ Money-back guarantee
Compare to typical royalty-share: $0 upfront, but 20% of every German sale for 7+ years. On a series that earns $40,000 in Germany over its lifetime, that's $8,000 you'll never see.
Our way: pay once, own forever.
Working on a series? Word counts stack across books. If your three-book trilogy totals 240,000 words, every word after the 100k threshold is at the lowest tier – even if the books are translated months apart.
THREE THINGS AUTHORS ASK US ABOUT PRICING
Will you negotiate? – No. Fair pricing means fair for both of us. We'd rather quote one honest number.
What about a sample? – Free 250-word sample on request. Same translator, same process.
Payment terms? – 25% on signing, 75% on delivery. For book projects, we can stage by chapter block.
