Myths of Publishing
When I started working as an editor just over a year ago, I began to learn about the strange world of publication. In this series, I'll be your inside man on books. In this series, I'll get you the hook-up, the scoop, the hush-hush, the low-down.
1. Myth of the Author
2. Myth of the Audience
3. Myth of Millions or The Long Tail of Literature
4. Myth of Agents
5. Myth of Bookstores
Update: I originally titled this series "Myths Publishers Want You To Believe," but the more I wrote, the more I realized that title was fake. It created a false division between publishers and writers. Of course, they don't want us to believe these myths either!
