Not that anon but how much do you estimate an average book like this to sell? Would you entertain something like a 2.25% of all royalties commission? i.e. let's say 10,000 books get sold, all at 20 dollars—so of that 200,000 dollars made from sales, you get €4,500 (aka 2.25%)

I asked grok and here's what he said :
>Flat Fee
Set a fixed price based on project tiers (e.g., basic edit vs. full integration).
Predictable for client
$100–250 for basic adaptation; $300+ if it includes print-ready files.
>Value-Based
Price based on the project's impact (e.g., 5–10% of expected book revenue).
Maximizes earnings for high-value work.
If the book could earn $5K, charge $250–500.
