"[Arthur Conan Doyle's] first work featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, A Study in Scarlet, was written in three weeks when he was 27 and was accepted for publication by Ward Lock & Co on 20 November 1886, which gave Doyle £25 (equivalent to £2,900 in 2019) in exchange for all rights to the story." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Conan_Doyle#Literary_ca... This very good story sold for about 3X the OP's story, at a time when print was the dominant medium. |
