What reading level is How to Become An Author; a Practical Guide book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Verse.
Mediocre verse finds a home in the maga- zines, and clever verse in the " Occasional " columns of the Pall Mall Gazette and the Westminster Gazette. The two Gazettes pay, I believe, one guinea per piece. The maga- zines pay from one to two shillings a line, and sometimes more. Mediocre verse can only be published in volume form at the poet's expense, and even then only through a third-rate firm.
Clever verse is issued, often at a trifling profit, by a few good firms who make a specialty ...of it.
A not unusual practice is that the publisher should pay the poet an honorarium of ten guineas for a small volume. Verse of genuine indisputable high quality is so excessively rare that it is certain of recognition and of 167 How to Become an Author an adequate publication. If it is well advertised and paragraphed, the profits on it are com- paratively large. Setting aside the abnormal rewards of a poet such as Tennyson, it may be said that quite a little band of minor poets have made a tolerably regular and not des- picable income out of verse during the last decade.
