Interesting read but I think JAK's rant at the end is pointless rabble-rousing. Like so many other popular figures who made a name for themselves with a single issue, he's starting to believe his own rhetoric.
Peterson had ten years with Harlequin and will probably do VERY well self-publishing, but someone fresh to the game, isn't going to have the accumulated marketing that being a Harlequin author gives her.
How can you object to the royalty Harlequin was paying when no-body else was fighting to publish those books and make the investment?
Old publishing is dying, at least let it die in peace.
