How Publishing Works

Posted by on Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 3:10 PM

Slog Tipper David forwarded this fascinating insight into the publishing world, which he saw on BoingBoing:

It's really courageous of Macmillan to pull the curtain back and reveal to us all exactly how books are produced and sold.

Thanks to David.

@3..

Thanks for that. I just burst out laughing and had everyone in my office looking at me.

Naw, Fnarf, if that was The Stranger, the other monkeys would be sitting around smoking dope while the two were fucking.

That was hilarious, but Fnarf's was even better. I can't pass that one around at work, though.
