    You could try the a writer's guild like http://www.writersguild.org.uk/ for advice.

    It depends on the contract. Sometimes it's 75% author 25% publisher, other contracts say 10% of book price for the first 1000 sold, then 8% for the next 10000 books sold. It really up to how much you think you are worth and your negotiation skills.
