I wouldn't doubt it.
That is the tragedy of this whole trad-pub vs self-pub (not so) civil war that is brewing: everybody loses.
Grafton loses sales and we don't get a chance to see what she wrote when she was exploring the boundaries of her talent and before she settled down to write series mystery.
The same for all the other "established" writers taking pot-shots at self-pub. *They* are the ones who stand to gain the *most* from self-publishing yet they go out of the way to stamp it out.
Hardly seems rational...
