Nice recap

New Yorker cartoons don’t miss.

my queries open tomorrow... 👀

Option 1: One-Off Payment £100–£150 flat fee We buy the rights You get paid upfront 20-year contract (print & digital) We handle everything else Option 2: Royalty Split + Upfront Bonus £50 bonus 60/40 split (Publisher/Author) 20-year contract (print & digital) Royalties paid after £300 in-house costs are recouped Option 3: 50/50 Royalty Split Equal partnership (Publisher/Author) 20-year contract (print & digital) Royalties begin after £300 in-house costs are recouped

When they cut hospital funding, they cut critical hospital staff.

When they cut hospital staff, it puts lives at risk.

Just another consequence of the GOP's Big Ugly Bill.
