Actually, with ebooks being the big sellers these days, it's the norm to pay a percentage of whatever the distributor (Amazon, Nook, etc) pays the publisher, which would be Net. And there are no overhead fees involved in this to creep into funds, or at least, there shouldn't be. If a press claims there are, THAT might call for a red flag, but again, not the method of payment.

I love you and am trying very hard not to pity you. God bless! I will be praying more earnestly for you. Red.
