Screenwriting
A novel prediction
Okay, Joe - something about writing (but something to do when you're not writing screenplays, so I
guess a little OT), here's an interesting article
from a guy I have a lot of respect for, who used
to write an interesting column for LOCUS (a
Science Fiction magazine about authors and
their new books and stuff) on the book
publishing business as an agent.
He's actually highlighted what a number of
friends are finding out as they glide sideways
from minimal to no luck in writing and selling
their specs, but not doing too bad in writing
and selling their novels and non-fiction work.
THE SUBSCRIPTION REVOLUTION
HOW PRINT ON DEMAND WILL SAVE
THE PUBLISHING INDUSTRY

Anyone doing the novel thing online while
you're waiting for George Lucas to call you
back?

- com / I said this would happen 10 years ago when I saw a print on demand machine for $25,000 at a Book Expo America.
