First-time authors get around $2000 advance (US) and about $1000-$1500 in other countries. You then get a royalty rate if your book goes past the first imprint. This varies between 6 and 8%, but is only a percentage of Harlequin's profit, which can be very, very small, perhaps only 5c per book sold. Do some more research into publishing - one author, whose book has sold more than 300,000 copies with Harlequin over the past 11 years, has earned less than $21,000 in the whole time.
Authors' earnings can vary widely depending on factors like book sales, royalties, advances, and the author's fame. On average, authors receive a royalty of 10-15% on each book sold, while advances can range from a few thousand dollars to millions for well-known authors. Some authors also earn money through speaking engagements, merchandise, and adaptations of their work.
It depends on who the money was paid to and how much money was paid.
'Authors' are usually not paid by the hour. Authors are usually paid by the manuscript. This is true for authors of books. Sometimes an author is given an advance amount of money in anticipation of receipt of the final manuscript. As well, sometimes authors are paid a royalty on each book sold.Other writers, such as journalists, technical writers, ghost writers, and so forth may be able to work out other compensation schemes.
