Dan: It is an extreme example to be sure. Globalization means the end of one way of living and the beginning of another. Those who understand the ramifications stand to profit from it while those who don't will end up working at Walmart. Not that working at Walmart is a bad thing... mind you. I am particularly interested in the direction publishing has taken during the last ten years... been shopping for a Quality microphone to start putting together my own pod casts and setting up a studio in one of my under-utilized outbuildings. What are your thoughts on how the industry is changing and how writers can better market themselves by bypassing the old publishing companies?
