You're correct as regards fiction, Alan, but the advance on a  
nonfiction work is generally made on the understanding the author  
will likely use it to help pay for whatever necessary research and  
permissions are required. In general, nonfiction works are sold on  
the basis of a proposal and sample chapters rather than a finished work.
