good to know

the point is, there is not one intrinsic difference between a self published book and one that was published by a publishing house,

books are like people there are good and bad everywhere, regardless of ethnic background, color or creed

what is at issue is control, the publishing houses have had it and they want to keep it, so they spew out that All self published work is inferior or that self published authors are lazy and do not work at their craft,

thats bullspit and you know it, there are independent writers who are very picky about what they release, and there are publishing house Icons like James Patterson and Tom Clancy who now lend their names to far inferior books than they originally authored.

as i've said there is no intrinsic benefit of one over the other, its all a matter of control
