What is a reasonable advance for a debut novel in today's market?
For a debut novelist entering today's traditional publishing market, a reasonable advance typically ranges from $5,000 to $15,000 for mid-tier commercial fiction and nonfiction, though high-profile literary fiction or buzzy YA can occasionally command six figures.
