Depends on you writing. Really it's hard to break into the market. but first time writers often don't make much from their books, unless it's a wildly popular book. If you can get a publisher to take your book, you can expect around 10-30% net back on your books. It's much easier to get into the book market by writing and having stories published in magazines first. that establishes you as a writer and will lend credit to your attempts to get a book published. Another was is to self publish, but that can be tedious and expensive. You might submit it to hallmark and harlequin. Maybe even write Emails to your favorite authors and see if they can give you and tips/help. Authors are often kindred spirits.
