If he received a $750k advance, that's his to keep. He won't be required to pay that back. That's the risk that publishers (both music and print) take when signing a writer or composer.
That said, I've been a huge fan of Joe's writing since he began writing for the Star and I hope this book doesn't tarnish his reputation.
