But part of such rant from authors could be due to disillusionment, frustration, or the need to blame someone for not recognizing the brilliance of their works. <BR/><BR/>I'm more perplexed, honestly, by small publishers who operated by selling such "big press=evil, us small presses=good and out to change the world for the better" philosophy to authors. Dreams are good, I suppose, but if I want to sell a book of mine, I'd take a publisher with a concrete business plan any day over someone who is merely selling me vague feel-good dreams.Hot Sauce Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335068352580267799noreply@blogger.com
