That’s a great video, especially the last few seconds. Definitely worth the watch. Thanks for posting it.
The segment about the million reasons? Yes, that is very telling;). You’re welcome.
Interesting article. I keep thinking about the first years when vinyl went to the wire with iTunes. We all know how that turned out. Print media (which I still love) and digital (which is useful) are head-to-head now. What I want to know is how will this epic battle will eventually affect those of us who write? I’ve started sending queries on my novel and, if the fates were kind and I had the choice, I would still go print media. But, who knows? At some point, would you explain how Ellora’s Cave works for you? I’ve read their submission guide lines, ect, but are the authors responsible for their own marketing?
We live in interesting times;). Email me with any questions you have about EC and I will try to answer them. Yay for finishing the book and sending out queries. Good luck!
