- Brian Defferding (?) over at Practical Praxeology tells us “Why The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is Better Atheist Libertarian Literature than Any Ayn Rand Book.” Do you agree?
- Digital publishing, tablets, ereaders, and the changing genre publishing landscape:
- Wired – Epicenter: “Digital Book Publishing Models to the Rescue.” A few of the interesting business models that are emerging, including J.K. Rowling's for the ebooks of the Potter series.
- Wired – Epicenter: “Are Tablets Killing E-Readers? Um, No….”
- Adventures in Scifi Publishing podcast #124: Fascinating interview with multi-genre author Kristine Kathryn Rusch about how digital publishing is changing the genre publishing landscape and stirring up controversy: outdated accounting practices, publisher undercounting of ebook sales, shady new agent practices (including one mentioned in the first Wired article above) and whether you even need or should get an agent now, publishing and agent contracts, foreign rights, ebook rights, IP lawyers, and so on. If this podcast episode piques your interest, be sure to check out Kris's Business Rusch series of blogposts for more on these topics.
