Not much reading involved, but it is about publishing...

Eileen Gittins, CEO and founder of Blurb – an online platform that allows individuals to design and publish their own photo books – has announced that Blurb users will now be able to sell and distribute their books globally through Amazon.com, even if they only sell one copy.
Although Amazon has sold self-published books before, this is the first time that the retailer has invested so heavily in photo books (Blurb users can also create text-based titles, but the platform's focus is on photo books). The decision marks a huge leap forward for the ever-growing group of photographers who are designing and printing their own photo books rather than working with traditional publishing houses.
