Agreeing with Hitch completely.
For every one publisher I know that is a professional (read this as invests in the books before they are published), I know at least a dozen that think publishing a book is free and easy.
Note: those dozens also whine about advertising costs, why won't an advertiser take them and the ubiquitous "but that big name writes worse than I do and she made millions".
And yes, I heard the ED excuse more than once. All an English degree does is prove to other academics that you understand the language.
Note to authors, just because you can construct a perfect sentence does not mean you can put together a story.
